Hello, good evening, and welcome to Sportscene. | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
Distant memories. Recent memories. Seizing the moment. Carved out on | :00:08. | :00:55. | |
the famous old trophy. Tomorrow, clubs who only lifted the cup in | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
black and white against more colourful recent winners. Celtic are | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
the William Hill Scottish Cup winners for 2013. This is history. | :01:05. | :01:10. | |
the William Hill Scottish Cup Today, a throwback, two finals from | :01:11. | :01:18. | |
this millennium. He scores. The 2003 Hampden Park showpiece. And the | :01:19. | :01:23. | |
chance to avenge 2010. David Goodwillie. Magic. Recent memories, | :01:24. | :01:31. | |
distant memories, making memories. It has been a day to remember in the | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
William Hill Scottish Cup. Over the next 50 minutes we will bring you | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
highlights from both of today's quarterfinal matches. A memorable | :01:41. | :01:47. | |
day calls for memorable guest. They are Michael Stewart and Pat Nevin. | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
We start with a repeat of the 2010 Scottish Cup final. Ross County had | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
never beaten Dundee United in this competition, United bottom of the | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
Premiership, what they did beat Ross County in the league last weekend. | :01:59. | :02:06. | |
In Dingwall for us was Liam McLeod. Dundee United stepping out for what | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
is their 14th cup quarterfinal in succession. The twice winners are | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
aiming to put their Premiership trials and tribulations to one side | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
against the team they beat to win the second of those Scottish cups | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
and 2010. Lots have changed since that day. Then a first division | :02:25. | :02:32. | |
side, Ross County our eight places better off than they are more | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
illustrious opponents. They are aiming to reach their second | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
semifinal of the season. Jim McIntyre brings top scorers Liam | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
Boyce and Brian Graham back into his side. The latter featured in a | :02:46. | :02:53. | |
substitute -- as a substitute in the 2014 final. | :02:54. | :03:02. | |
The normal Dundee United goalkeeper is injured, so Luis Zwich start | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
single for the first time since the defeat by Celtic on it over. Ryan | :03:07. | :03:15. | |
Dow comes into the team. Sean Dillon, the club captain, plays. It | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
is also the first art of the season for Henri Anier. Jim McIntyre | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
resolve smiles. No wonder, a quarterfinal at home, and the League | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
Cup final against Hibernian next Sunday. The referee is Craig | :03:31. | :03:36. | |
Thomson. He has handled the final of this competition on three separate | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
occasions. The fourth Scottish Cup meeting between the two, the 2010 | :03:43. | :03:49. | |
final clash was a day for Dundee United in the sun. Can Ross County | :03:50. | :03:57. | |
beat them for the first time? He is confident they can beat the drop and | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
confident they can go further in this tournament. The ball by Paul | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
Dixon. Richard Foster did know much Dixon. Richard Foster did know much | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
-- did not know much about that. That is a great touch by Liam Boyce. | :04:09. | :04:15. | |
Paul Paton is floundering in his wake. Liam Boyce cannot turn it home | :04:16. | :04:24. | |
after Luis Zwich saves. This is great payback -- great play by Liam | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
Boyce. Dundee United did not deal with it at all. It was a lovely ball | :04:30. | :04:35. | |
by Irvine. Luis Zwich saved with his feet. It could have gone a where. He | :04:36. | :04:43. | |
was inviting the predatory Liam Boyce to shoot from six yards. Paul | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
Paton Bidwell as well. It is the closest we have come to a goal in | :04:50. | :04:57. | |
the cup tie. Inside to Woods. He scored the first in the League Cup | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
victory against Celtic. Irvine stabs it forward and gets it back | :05:04. | :05:10. | |
immediately. This is a good spell. A good spell for County. Knocking the | :05:11. | :05:20. | |
ball about well in the final third. The snapshot from Irvine. Graham | :05:21. | :05:30. | |
digging it out, looking for Jonathan Franks. Mark Durnan Alex Tettey and | :05:31. | :05:41. | |
seedy corner. -- Mark Durnan concedes the corner. Davies. Flicked | :05:42. | :05:54. | |
home by Liam Boyce. He ends a goal drought and puts Ross County in the | :05:55. | :06:01. | |
driving seat in this last eight tie. He had not scored in eight, and that | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
is 18 for the season. Simplicity itself. One corner, two headers, and | :06:06. | :06:17. | |
in the blink of an eye, it is 1-0 to Ross County. This is Richard Foster. | :06:18. | :06:30. | |
Liam Boyce, great dummy. I showed for handball, but the referee | :06:31. | :06:37. | |
disagrees. -- the claim for handball. He was onside. That could | :06:38. | :06:45. | |
be a big let off for Dundee United. I think Liam Boyce knows that. There | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
was no flag against the Northern Irishman. A great chance for a Liam | :06:51. | :06:57. | |
Boyce to make it two. He has had a good few opportunities, that is | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
first. United had taken things up at the back in away matches in | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
particular. That goal from Liam Boyce in the first half was the | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
first that United have conceded since the match at Dens Park in | :07:12. | :07:19. | |
January. Irvine, looking for Graham. It is only half cleared. What an | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
effort from Irvine. He thought he had scored. This is a cracking hit | :07:25. | :07:32. | |
from Jackson Irvine. Controlled, powerful. Luis Zwich was rooted to | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
the spot. It was the wrong side of the post. | :07:37. | :07:48. | |
This is Ryan Dow, coming more and more into this game. You sense there | :07:49. | :08:00. | |
is a goal and as for Dundee United. There were three of them last week. | :08:01. | :08:09. | |
It was not the best ball from Blair Spittal. Michael Gardyne giving it | :08:10. | :08:16. | |
away. Mark Durnan. What is he going to do? Henri Anier. It is 1-1. Henri | :08:17. | :08:30. | |
Anier scores for Dundee United for the first time in the campaign. It | :08:31. | :08:38. | |
has drawn the Tangerines level in the Highlands. The Estonian pounces. | :08:39. | :08:47. | |
Just when Dundee United needed a hero. | :08:48. | :08:54. | |
Henri Anier has been booked for his celebrations. He well might be | :08:55. | :09:02. | |
bothered about that now. Good play by Mark Durnan. It looked like it | :09:03. | :09:06. | |
had gotten away from him. He was going for a goal himself. He did | :09:07. | :09:13. | |
enough. The ricochet favours United. They have not had much luck this | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
season. Henri Anier was there to gobble it up in his first start of | :09:18. | :09:26. | |
the season. Mark Durnan, he switched off. He has brought Brian Graham | :09:27. | :09:34. | |
down. That will be a penalty, and surely a red card for Mark Durnan. | :09:35. | :09:38. | |
It has got to be a red card. It is a red card. What was he thinking? | :09:39. | :09:44. | |
Dundee United had just hauled themselves back into this cup tie, | :09:45. | :09:50. | |
and for a split-second Mark Durnan switched off. He got himself in all | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
of trouble. He holds Brian Graham to the ground. He has presented Ross | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
County with an immediate chance to the ground. He has presented Ross | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
restore their lead. Brian Graham, against his old club. He has the | :10:05. | :10:13. | |
chance to restore the county lead. They are playing the ten men. It is | :10:14. | :10:24. | |
Brian Graham, it is 2-1. Quake as a flash, this game turns again. It is | :10:25. | :10:32. | |
nine for the season for the big striker. Luis Zwich went the right | :10:33. | :10:41. | |
way. Brian Graham managed to squeeze it home. He will be devastated, | :10:42. | :11:03. | |
without a doubt. Henri Anier, who briefly had belief coursing through | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
United veins. It is still alive for them. John Rankin floats attend. It | :11:07. | :11:16. | |
is Henri Anier again, stunning. What a stunning 510 minutes we have had | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
in Dingwall. Henri Anier with the double. This is a brilliant finish | :11:22. | :11:28. | |
in Dingwall. Henri Anier with the from Henri Anier. As cool as you | :11:29. | :11:39. | |
like. It flicked off the head of Andrew Davies, which allowed it to | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
foul for Henri Anier. That is a lovely finish. -- to fall. Good | :11:44. | :11:58. | |
footwork from Blair Spittal. He has been a shining light for Dundee this | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
season. It has been a dark tunnel for United, most of it. That was a | :12:05. | :12:11. | |
heavy touch from Alex Schalk. Dillon does what he has to do, and that is | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
tackle Alex Schalk and win the ball back for United, just as it looked | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
like he was going to slice open the United rearguard. Henri Anier, going | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
from one end to the other. He has polluted back. -- pulled it back. | :12:27. | :12:34. | |
Ryan Dow is having a go at the rectory because he has had to | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
deviate from his run because of the position of the referee. -- having a | :12:39. | :12:49. | |
go at the referee. You wonder if the referee had not been there, would | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
Ryan Dow have got their ahead of Irvine. This is Irvine. You would | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
not predict who would win this, if there is to be a winner today. | :13:01. | :13:07. | |
Michael Gardyne. That is unlucky. That has taken a touch. | :13:08. | :13:17. | |
United would have held their breath as Gardyne got it on to his left | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
foot. There is still time to find a winner | :13:22. | :13:36. | |
for both. Michael Gardyne. Good play, swept in. That is a big | :13:37. | :13:46. | |
chance. Raffaele De Vita at the back post. If United went on to win this | :13:47. | :13:56. | |
match today, and go through to the semifinals, what character it will | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
have shown, what confidence it will give them for the matches that lie | :14:00. | :14:03. | |
ahead. There are loads of big games coming up for them. This is Ryan | :14:04. | :14:12. | |
Dow. He goes to Blair Spittal. In it comes for Mckay. Unbelievable. Mixu | :14:13. | :14:24. | |
Paatelainen punches the air with delight. Well he might. The ten men | :14:25. | :14:31. | |
of Dundee United have just gone in front for the first time today. It | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
will surely seal their passage to the last four. A beautiful ball by | :14:38. | :14:46. | |
Spithill. -- Blair Spittal. Billy Mckay does not miss from there. This | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
coming in the last minute of normal time. What an afternoon for Mixu | :14:52. | :15:01. | |
Paatelainen. It is not overreact. That is Liam Boyce. Liam Boyce | :15:02. | :15:12. | |
thought he had salvaged a replay. It was a nice header by Alex Schalk. | :15:13. | :15:19. | |
The outside of the boot, and it goes wide. Craig Thomson's whistle | :15:20. | :15:27. | |
signals that Dundee United into the semifinals of the William Hill | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
Scottish Cup. A quite astonishing second half. Twice county lead | :15:33. | :15:39. | |
through Liam Boyce and a Brian Graham penalty after Mark Durnan was | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
sent off. Henri Anier levelled the tie twice before Billy Mckay's | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
header from inside the six yard box in the final minute of the night | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
they had sent county, the League Cup finalists, spinning out of the | :15:54. | :16:00. | |
Scottish Cup in Dingwall. In the Highlands, after an incredible and | :16:01. | :16:06. | |
pulse baiting -- pulsating Scottish Cup final, 3-2. | :16:07. | :16:12. | |
Obviously, I did not realise how late it was in the game when I | :16:13. | :16:19. | |
scored. I managed to find myself a bit of space in the box and got on | :16:20. | :16:22. | |
the end of it. He liked it to get the win. The way the game had gone, | :16:23. | :16:28. | |
going down to ten men, being behind, we showed great character. It is a | :16:29. | :16:34. | |
golden opportunity to get to another national semifinal. Frankly, we did | :16:35. | :16:40. | |
not stop the crosses for the three goals. It is not good enough. We | :16:41. | :16:49. | |
have got to get out, get close. United were down to ten men and we | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
seemed to stand off them and allow courses to come into the box. We | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
have got to be much better than that. It was a real sore one to | :16:58. | :17:04. | |
take. What an interesting season Dundee United are having. After the | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
final whistle, I spoke to Mixu Paatelainen. Thank you very much for | :17:09. | :17:11. | |
joining us. Huge congratulations on your victory today - you must be | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
thrilled with the character shown by your players? Absolutely. The boys | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
were fantastic. To be fair, in the last few weeks, we have shown a | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
great woman never say die attitude. And that is what we had today. -- a | :17:26. | :17:32. | |
great, never say die attitude. It makes the journey back down a lot | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
easier. It look like the sending-off of Mark Durnan might be a turning | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
point in this match - did you have any complaints about the decision? | :17:43. | :17:47. | |
No, I thought it was a red card. I thought it was a penalty. The | :17:48. | :17:51. | |
referee was bang on. Obviously, we should have cleared that situation | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
much earlier, but we didn't. But prior to that, the way we played, I | :17:57. | :18:02. | |
felt we were the better team in the first half and the early part of the | :18:03. | :18:09. | |
second half. We got back into the game and then the incident happened, | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
2-1 down. We felt that because of the way we played, we wanted to keep | :18:14. | :18:19. | |
some parts of our tactics going, instead of just defend. And we got | :18:20. | :18:27. | |
the reward. The boys were full of running and effort to get forward. | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
We look at dangerous, even with the man down. I can only thank the | :18:34. | :18:40. | |
players for the shift and the effort they put in. It was a thrilling | :18:41. | :18:46. | |
match to watch, especially in the second half. Billy Mckay I got the | :18:47. | :18:50. | |
eventual winner, but what a time for Henri Anier to step up with a goal? | :18:51. | :18:56. | |
Yes, obviously, he has had difficult times. He was on loan at Hibs, came | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
back, has not played too much. This times. He was on loan at Hibs, came | :19:00. | :19:02. | |
was his first start this season for us. And what a full debut this | :19:03. | :19:09. | |
season for him. Fantastic full stop but to be fair to him, he works | :19:10. | :19:12. | |
very, very hard on the training ground. He is a powerful player with | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
good ability, so we felt that against the strong centre halves | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
that Ross County have, he might worry them. And he did. Excellent | :19:22. | :19:28. | |
effort from him. It is back to the small matter of staying in the | :19:29. | :19:31. | |
Premiership on Friday against Motherwell of course. But the way | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
things are going, it is a roller-coaster, but if you stay in | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
the Premiership, win the Scottish Cup, suddenly you are manager of the | :19:40. | :19:45. | |
year? Let's not get carried away! But we will enjoy this victory. It | :19:46. | :19:50. | |
makes the journey back down easier. Next Friday, Motherwell. I believe | :19:51. | :19:56. | |
they shattered today so they are on form again. They beat us a couple of | :19:57. | :20:02. | |
weeks ago. Who knows? With the spirit we saw today, anything can | :20:03. | :20:04. | |
happen. Huge congratulations. spirit we saw today, anything can | :20:05. | :20:14. | |
Paatelainen, a very happy man tonight. Pat, that red card looked | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
like it might be a turning point in this match for Dundee United, we | :20:20. | :20:25. | |
thought? We certainly did. But Mixu has made some good decisions | :20:26. | :20:30. | |
recently. This was a blue was the best one he has made for quite some | :20:31. | :20:34. | |
time! We will look at the penalty first and just pause it here. | :20:35. | :20:40. | |
Durnan, he is 100% favourite to win that ball. But he kind of stops, and | :20:41. | :20:43. | |
I don't know why. I don't think that ball. But he kind of stops, and | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
anybody will understand, apart from Durnan, why he does it. Really he | :20:49. | :20:52. | |
has been involved in a challenge here before with Graham. It is not | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
as if he does not know he is on his shoulder. The 'keeper is far too far | :20:58. | :21:01. | |
back. He has got to know that Graham is there, and he has got to make | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
sure that he gets his body in front. But he doesn't. There is no big | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
argument. He takes his time, things about it, but there is no argument | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
really. The only person who does not think it is a penalty is Durnan. It | :21:16. | :21:24. | |
is only a slight pull, but it is a pull. You're just getting back into | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
the game, and suddenly, you have a nightmare - what do you do? And he | :21:29. | :21:35. | |
goes ultra positive? Normally you would go 4-4- one. Or 4-3- two. But | :21:36. | :21:50. | |
he was extremely positive. I think the team were probably playing 343 | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
before that. By all accounts, yet they have played three at the back | :21:56. | :21:58. | |
for a while, so this will have fitted their shape. When you win the | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
ball and get yourself in good positions, you have got more players | :22:04. | :22:08. | |
up the park. If we pause it here, you have got your midfield free | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
here. So you have got three going forward. As we go forward, you find | :22:15. | :22:22. | |
you have actually got another three at the back. So you are actually | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
outnumbering the opposition even though you are down to ten men. | :22:27. | :22:30. | |
You're putting them under great pressure. It is fine, you are too- | :22:31. | :22:37. | |
one down, you can throw caution to the wind. Maybe it is not that | :22:38. | :22:43. | |
brave. Because you have to get into the game and it is a cup tie. Of | :22:44. | :22:49. | |
course it is a bit risky as well. 2-2 away from home, with ten men, | :22:50. | :22:53. | |
you're thinking you might just take that? This is the most impressive | :22:54. | :22:59. | |
thing, he carries on! He thinks, I am going to try and win this game. | :23:00. | :23:06. | |
The drag back is fantastic. But the amount of players who wants to get | :23:07. | :23:12. | |
forward here... If we just have a look, there is a whole bunch of | :23:13. | :23:21. | |
players forward again. Three here, and there you have got your other | :23:22. | :23:24. | |
three. The one which is most impressive is him. Even though it is | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
the last minute, away from home, down to ten men, he wants to get in | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
there and try and win the game. It is an attitude which Mixu has built | :23:35. | :23:39. | |
recently. Of course it is. Also, Ross County have got to do better | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
defensively. You can see how disappointed Quinn was. He is going | :23:44. | :23:49. | |
absolutely nuts. Ross County have got so many back, they have got to | :23:50. | :23:56. | |
defend that better. It is a fantastic win, but you can do it | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
once or twice. But doing it at the right time and having the convention | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
to stick with it, that is what impressed me most. -- the | :24:06. | :24:10. | |
conviction. Next weekend is absolutely massive for Ross County | :24:11. | :24:13. | |
as well. They are in the League Cup Final against Hibernian and you can | :24:14. | :24:18. | |
watch all the action on Sportscene live from Hampden on Sunday. Back to | :24:19. | :24:26. | |
the Scottish Cup. The first of the quarter finals this weekend was at | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
Ibrox. It was Rangers up against Dundee. Wood comes from Paul | :24:30. | :24:45. | |
Mitchell. -- commentary comes. It may now make the Scottish Cup | :24:46. | :24:47. | |
less of a distraction for the Ibrox club. It is back-to-back away ties | :24:48. | :24:53. | |
for Dundee. They travelled to Dumbarton in the last 16 Lawro they | :24:54. | :25:01. | |
needed a replay to earn this away day in Glasgow. Billy King and | :25:02. | :25:09. | |
Michael O'Halloran are cup-tied. Rikki Clarke finds a place on the | :25:10. | :25:19. | |
bench. Dundee took a point from the trip to Celtic in midweek. Paul | :25:20. | :25:25. | |
Hartley sends out a more familiar starting XI, with the return of five | :25:26. | :25:34. | |
players. Those include captain Gary Harkins. The first ever managerial | :25:35. | :25:38. | |
meeting of Paul Hartley and Mark Warburton. Our referee is Alan Bure. | :25:39. | :25:45. | |
He last took charge of Dundee in the last defeat, against Aberdeen. -- | :25:46. | :25:57. | |
Alan Muir. Rangers immediately in possession. And quickly moving | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
forward... Forrester! 14 seconds gone and Harry Forrester blasts | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
Rangers ahead! What just owning start! -- what a stunning start! | :26:09. | :26:19. | |
Rangers showed their intent from the off. Simple pass by Ball. Miller | :26:20. | :26:28. | |
came short. Dawdling on the ball was Kevin Holt. And Harry Forrester | :26:29. | :26:37. | |
fired it past Scott Bain. Such a narrow angle. He scores for Rangers | :26:38. | :26:46. | |
in his third consecutive match. What a start. McGinn doing enough against | :26:47. | :27:02. | |
Mckay. That is a brilliant ball inside. Rangers looking for a | :27:03. | :27:12. | |
second. Scott Bain making the stop. Forrester turned supplier that time. | :27:13. | :27:24. | |
Forrester will get it back. It could be in! It has gone wide! McGinn was | :27:25. | :27:35. | |
shouting. Communication breakdown. Just coming back off Paul McGinn. | :27:36. | :27:46. | |
In two Erskine. That is a lovely first touch. Harkins with the shot! | :27:47. | :27:56. | |
Well, Dundee can create very quickly. It is the trio of Hemmings, | :27:57. | :28:06. | |
Stewart and Harkins. It just came off the heel. | :28:07. | :28:16. | |
Barrie McKay pounces on the loose ball. Kenny Miller is wide. Kenny | :28:17. | :28:26. | |
Miller! Sliding in was Darren O'Dea. Darren O'Dea, showing his | :28:27. | :28:31. | |
experience. He look outside him and saw where the danger was. | :28:32. | :28:39. | |
Forrester handmade the run down the right, but it comes back inside to | :28:40. | :28:51. | |
iron. A little dummy by Holt. Jason Holder, taken out. Holt got the | :28:52. | :29:10. | |
touch. Tavernier. And a one-handed save. The goalkeeper in good | :29:11. | :29:16. | |
position. Greg Stewart, with McGinn outside | :29:17. | :29:45. | |
him. Foderingham did well. Holt kept it in. | :29:46. | :30:11. | |
The run from Tavernier! And the sliding challenge came in from | :30:12. | :30:17. | |
McGowan. Back to McGowan. Hemmings will break | :30:18. | :30:35. | |
for it. Corner. Into stoppage time in the first | :30:36. | :31:00. | |
half. Greg Stewart with the corner. That is lofty. Kane Hemmings could | :31:01. | :31:09. | |
not get a touch on that, and it went straight to the arms of the | :31:10. | :31:13. | |
goalkeeper. If he had got the glancing header, it would have been | :31:14. | :31:16. | |
goalkeeper. If he had got the worked on the line for the | :31:17. | :31:21. | |
goalkeeper. Kenny Miller, he cannot get away from McGinn. The referee | :31:22. | :31:30. | |
glances at his watch. Into the sunshine. Stewart, with Tavernier. | :31:31. | :31:43. | |
It is still Gary Harkins. The ball out wide to Nick Ross. Three in the | :31:44. | :31:50. | |
box for Dundee. Block by Tavernier, and that will be half-time. Rangers' | :31:51. | :31:56. | |
100th goal of the season came from Harry Forrester. Silly in three | :31:57. | :32:02. | |
games for the Englishman. An electric start from Rangers. At | :32:03. | :32:14. | |
half-time, it is 1-0. Dundee get the second half of this Scottish Cup | :32:15. | :32:19. | |
quarterfinal under way. They found themselves behind after just 14 | :32:20. | :32:29. | |
seconds, but they conceded no further goals. The message from Paul | :32:30. | :32:34. | |
Hartley will be to forget about the first half and go out there and play | :32:35. | :32:42. | |
as you can. Being at Ibrox seems like a disadvantage to Dundee, but | :32:43. | :32:48. | |
they have won on three of the last six Scottish Cup trips to Ibrox. | :32:49. | :32:52. | |
There have only won once in 11 at Dens Park. It is picked up by every | :32:53. | :33:04. | |
life. Inside, with Kane Hemmings. No changes at half-time. | :33:05. | :33:18. | |
Forrester, the goal-scorer, trying to link with Kenny Miller. Chased by | :33:19. | :33:31. | |
Kevin Holt. McKay pops up on the right side, and usually. That is a | :33:32. | :33:37. | |
great ball, the lay-off Kenny Miller. Jason Holt completes the | :33:38. | :33:45. | |
second goal for Rangers. The stun them in the first half. It has taken | :33:46. | :33:49. | |
longer in the second, but Rangers with a crucial second goal. Harry | :33:50. | :33:55. | |
Forrester from Tavernier. It is a wonderful cross ball. Barrie McKay | :33:56. | :34:00. | |
saw the run of Kenny Miller and chested down. It is a good header | :34:01. | :34:07. | |
from Jason Holt. He scores in the Scottish Cup for Rangers for the | :34:08. | :34:13. | |
first time. Dundee in real trouble. Wonderful play. Rangers are 2-0 | :34:14. | :34:20. | |
ahead. The right place at the right time for the former Hearts man. | :34:21. | :34:21. | |
Scott Bain was left with no chance. Dundee need something soon. Greg | :34:22. | :34:50. | |
Stewart with the cutback. Tavernier lays it into the path of Robert | :34:51. | :34:56. | |
Kiernan. Left or right, it does not matter for Barrie McKay today, great | :34:57. | :35:03. | |
wing play. He cuts inside. He is away from O'Dea. Kenny Miller takes | :35:04. | :35:07. | |
over. Kenny Miller is knocked to the ground out of sheer frustration. | :35:08. | :35:13. | |
That is a sore one. The apology comes from Nick Ross. The referee | :35:14. | :35:23. | |
almost getting in the way. It is going to be Halliday. It is going to | :35:24. | :35:30. | |
be a third goal. His first goal in the Scottish Cup for seven years for | :35:31. | :35:36. | |
Andrew Halliday. It is good night, Dundee. Rangers are three ahead, 54 | :35:37. | :35:42. | |
minutes played, and the side at the top of the Championship are running | :35:43. | :35:46. | |
roughshod over the side that are fifth in the Premiership. Bain got a | :35:47. | :35:49. | |
roughshod over the side that are hand to it, but could not keep it | :35:50. | :35:55. | |
out. The wall did not do its job, and Rangers can almost taste the | :35:56. | :35:57. | |
semifinal. Kenny Miller, brilliant, to Lee | :35:58. | :36:18. | |
Wallace. Scott Bain to the rescue. The last time Scott Bain played | :36:19. | :36:23. | |
against Rangers in a Scottish Cup tie, he conceded seven as the Alloa | :36:24. | :36:35. | |
Athletic goalkeeper. That is a good angle ball to Paul McGowan, but they | :36:36. | :36:39. | |
cannot finish. Rangers have just enough. This is Kerr. Kerr clipped | :36:40. | :36:45. | |
the ball inside. He will get the free kick. He said it was his | :36:46. | :36:52. | |
shoulder. It is where you put your shoulder sometimes that is the | :36:53. | :36:56. | |
problem. It just got tangled that the feed of Paul McGowan. 15 minutes | :36:57. | :37:05. | |
to play. Can Dundee look for any sort of Lifeline? Gary Harkins. That | :37:06. | :37:15. | |
sums up the day for Dundee. That did not work from Paul McGowan. | :37:16. | :37:32. | |
Kenny Miller on the inside. He has gone himself, Lee Wallace. A | :37:33. | :37:37. | |
wonderful goal from the Rangers skipper. Rangers four, Dundee zero. | :37:38. | :37:44. | |
A Scottish Cup semifinal place for Rangers. Lee Wallace, the captain, | :37:45. | :37:51. | |
with a wonderful solo goal. He scored against Cowdenbeath and that | :37:52. | :37:55. | |
was a good one, but this is much better. Away from Paul McGowan and | :37:56. | :38:01. | |
inside O'Dea. Scott Bain with no chance with the finish. Some great | :38:02. | :38:07. | |
team goals and individual goals. Individual style from Lee Wallace. A | :38:08. | :38:13. | |
player so full of confidence and the nonchalant finish. | :38:14. | :38:20. | |
It is all over at Ibrox. Success for Mark Warburton. Harry Forrester put | :38:21. | :38:52. | |
Rangers ahead after 14 seconds. They did not add to the goal tally in the | :38:53. | :38:56. | |
first half. They blew Dundee away with two quick second-half goals. | :38:57. | :39:02. | |
Lee Wallace's goal-scoring cameo completed the scoring. Foreign Burke | :39:03. | :39:07. | |
-- for Dundee, it is the fourth quarterfinal loss in the last ten | :39:08. | :39:11. | |
years. Rangers are in the semifinals of the Scottish Cup. Lee Wallace | :39:12. | :39:15. | |
will lead his side into the last four. On the day, they certainly | :39:16. | :39:28. | |
deserve to be there. 4-0 at Ibrox. Jude to an ongoing situation between | :39:29. | :39:32. | |
BBC Scotland and Rangers, we do not have any interviews from Ibrox | :39:33. | :39:36. | |
today. We were all expecting a tight game between Dundee and Rangers but | :39:37. | :39:41. | |
it did not transpire. It was a great performance from Rangers. You are | :39:42. | :39:46. | |
right, there was lots of discussion about how Rangers would feel against | :39:47. | :39:49. | |
Premiership opposition. They blew them away, right from the start, | :39:50. | :39:55. | |
getting the goals are warily. It's solidified their dominance | :39:56. | :39:58. | |
throughout the game, the scored at vital times, and by the end, they | :39:59. | :40:04. | |
were very much worthy winners. 14 seconds, that is how long it took | :40:05. | :40:09. | |
for the first goal. So disappointing for Paul Hartley, but what a start | :40:10. | :40:14. | |
for Harry Forrester. It is a dream start in a cup game, getting the | :40:15. | :40:19. | |
crowd behind you. It is about putting the other team on the back | :40:20. | :40:24. | |
foot. This tackle, the manager is saying, press them high early in the | :40:25. | :40:28. | |
game. That is more than you would expect. The first time tackle. It | :40:29. | :40:35. | |
led to a better game of football. It became incredibly open. There was no | :40:36. | :40:40. | |
point in Dundee sitting back. It became an open game. Five minutes | :40:41. | :40:45. | |
later, Rangers could have been three up. Plenty happening from the start. | :40:46. | :40:49. | |
Not the fastest goal in Scottish Cup history. This is the televisual | :40:50. | :40:55. | |
evidence we have of the fastest goal that we can see. It was John Hewitt, | :40:56. | :41:02. | |
back in 1982, Aberdeen against Motherwell, 9.6 seconds. Not the | :41:03. | :41:09. | |
best defending. Any time you get a start like that, it can change the | :41:10. | :41:12. | |
mindset of every player and the start like that, it can change the | :41:13. | :41:16. | |
manager and the tactics. What a generally leads to is a good game. | :41:17. | :41:21. | |
Let's look at the Harry Forrester more detail. A great start for | :41:22. | :41:27. | |
Rangers, but Dundee will be disappointed. Of course. The manager | :41:28. | :41:33. | |
will be tearing his hair out. Pat is right. Harry Forrester is pressing | :41:34. | :41:40. | |
and that the intent Rangers had. The graphic shows the defenders. They | :41:41. | :41:45. | |
need to offer more cover for each other. It happened so quickly, they | :41:46. | :41:50. | |
did not get a chance. Darren O'Dea does well. The goalkeeper has to | :41:51. | :41:54. | |
make sure that the front post is covered. Every time Darren O'Dea is | :41:55. | :42:02. | |
showing the attacker to the side, the goalkeeper has got to cover the | :42:03. | :42:08. | |
post. Maybe he could have been cover better. Perhaps he should have | :42:09. | :42:12. | |
engaged higher up. It is ten seconds into the game. You are not into the | :42:13. | :42:17. | |
rhythm, so mistakes like that or understandable. Unfortunately for | :42:18. | :42:22. | |
Dundee, there were other mistakes during the game. Rangers were | :42:23. | :42:23. | |
superb. Michael made an important during the game. Rangers were | :42:24. | :42:28. | |
point, scoring goals at the right moment. It looks like a hammering, | :42:29. | :42:36. | |
4-0, but in reality, 425 minutes Rangers were brilliant, but Dundee | :42:37. | :42:41. | |
were the side for put. The second half was the same as the first half. | :42:42. | :42:46. | |
They started well. This must be frustrating for Paul Hartley. It is | :42:47. | :42:52. | |
a fantastic move from Rangers. There are 12 passes to get to the final | :42:53. | :42:56. | |
move. If you get yourself in space in the box, he is shouting for it. | :42:57. | :43:01. | |
If you have got space, you have to make a good first touch. How good is | :43:02. | :43:07. | |
that touch? That is a tremendous goal. All the way from their own six | :43:08. | :43:12. | |
yard line. It is one of the best team goals I have seen this season. | :43:13. | :43:20. | |
You take nothing away from that. Then you can relax and enjoy. Your | :43:21. | :43:24. | |
role-playing and wanting to score. They took over. The Andy Halliday | :43:25. | :43:30. | |
goal, in the 54th minute, it was at a great time for Rangers. Yes, round | :43:31. | :43:38. | |
about the one-hour mark. Bain will be disappointed. You can see the | :43:39. | :43:43. | |
runner over, and it makes my -- Bain take a step to his left. The | :43:44. | :43:49. | |
goalkeeper has got to cover the goal. If the Verney puts it over the | :43:50. | :43:53. | |
wall, the goalkeeper can do nothing about it. If the goalkeeper had | :43:54. | :43:57. | |
stayed in his position, he would have stopped that. -- if Tavernier. | :43:58. | :44:08. | |
Lee Wallace with a great goal. Yes, we have spoken about this before, | :44:09. | :44:14. | |
the overlap. He is like a train. That is unstoppable. The cause he is | :44:15. | :44:18. | |
going so quickly, there is nothing they can do. He has power, he is | :44:19. | :44:22. | |
very direct. This is interesting. He they can do. He has power, he is | :44:23. | :44:27. | |
gets his head down and goes towards the defenders. They cannot engage in | :44:28. | :44:32. | |
before the box they cannot tackle him. If they miss him and tackle, it | :44:33. | :44:38. | |
is a penalty kick and they will be sent off. We spoke about him last | :44:39. | :44:44. | |
time. Is there a possibility he will get dragged into the Scotland squad | :44:45. | :44:50. | |
again? He is doing it all the time. Remember the criticism that Rangers | :44:51. | :44:54. | |
got after the St Johnstone game at Ibrox, seeing how far behind they | :44:55. | :44:59. | |
were. This is a good Dundee team who have not giving away goals and they | :45:00. | :45:02. | |
have been playing well. The scored four. Congratulations to Rangers and | :45:03. | :45:09. | |
Gray quarterfinals tomorrow as well. Gray quarterfinals tomorrow as well. | :45:10. | :45:13. | |
-- two. What a goal from Roberts! And there | :45:14. | :45:47. | |
is live coverage of Hibs versus Inverness tomorrow afternoon on | :45:48. | :45:56. | |
Sportscene. And then join us at 10.34 highlights of the day's | :45:57. | :46:01. | |
action, including Celtic's match with Morton, plus all the | :46:02. | :46:06. | |
Premiership action am talking of which, we all know Celtic are | :46:07. | :46:10. | |
toiling, there is pressure on Ronny Deila - how much of a banana skin is | :46:11. | :46:15. | |
that? When your confidence is low, it is a huge banana skin. They will | :46:16. | :46:20. | |
have to make sure they get a good result. If the unthinkable was to | :46:21. | :46:23. | |
happen and they were to lose at Celtic Park, then I think the | :46:24. | :46:26. | |
pressure could almost be too much to take full Ronny Deila and his | :46:27. | :46:31. | |
position would be almost untenable. Looking at the other match, Hibs - | :46:32. | :46:36. | |
Inverness, how do you see it going? Just on Celtic, the fact that they | :46:37. | :46:41. | |
are four points clear in the league, it could only happen in Scotland! | :46:42. | :46:47. | |
Yes, Hibs- Inverness, everybody has been saying it is the hardest one to | :46:48. | :46:51. | |
call. Both teams have been having a little bit of a dip in form. I think | :46:52. | :46:55. | |
it is a bit more than that for Hibs. I have kind of crashed. They have | :46:56. | :47:03. | |
had a huge long period, and then three defeats in eight days. They | :47:04. | :47:12. | |
have to get it in their mind that they can get back from that. Today, | :47:13. | :47:15. | |
in the Premiership, there were two big matches. Hamilton Academical | :47:16. | :47:21. | |
lost to Motherwell. Hearts beat Partick Thistle at Tynecastle. It | :47:22. | :47:27. | |
leaves the Premiership table looking like this... In the Championship it | :47:28. | :47:34. | |
was also a busy day. Falkirk beat Alloa Athletic 2-0. Living stone | :47:35. | :47:43. | |
beat Dumbarton... It means that Falkirk have taken advantage of | :47:44. | :47:47. | |
Rangers and Hibs playing in the cup and they are now in second place. | :47:48. | :47:55. | |
Pat, I have to ask you, in terms of Hibs, it is a strange set of | :47:56. | :47:58. | |
priorities at the moment, with the League Cup Final next weekend and | :47:59. | :48:03. | |
this battle in the Championship. If you ask Alan Stubbs, he will say, | :48:04. | :48:07. | |
every game as it comes. Yes, they would love to win the Scottish Cup | :48:08. | :48:11. | |
but they are in a final, and that would probably be the priority. But | :48:12. | :48:15. | |
in the end, every Hibs fan will say, it is the league. Thank you very | :48:16. | :48:22. | |
much. Today's first half of quarterfinal weekend was not bad. | :48:23. | :48:26. | |
We're hoping for even better tomorrow. Until tomorrow, good | :48:27. | :48:28. | |
night. say, it can work two ways. | :48:29. | :49:06. | |
Thankfully we got on top. You are confident you will get a chance to | :49:07. | :49:10. | |
make sure Newcastle are in the Premier League? I hope so. I believe | :49:11. | :49:14. | |
in what we are doing and our staff. I | :49:15. | :49:16. |
