Scottish Cup Final: Hibernian v Heart of Midlothian

:00:05. > :00:10.today. You can see why Hampden Park is the choice. It is the first

:00:10. > :00:18.Scottish Cup Final for Hibs 62001. On that occasion they lost to

:00:18. > :00:28.Celtic. -- since 2001. Eight times they have contested finals since

:00:28. > :00:49.

:00:49. > :00:54.their last won it. A lot of jibes penalty shoot-out victory. Rudi

:00:54. > :01:04.Skacel scored in that final. He scored three Scottish Cup goals

:01:04. > :01:04.

:01:04. > :01:12.already this season. Garry O'Connor, in his second spell at Hibs. He

:01:12. > :01:16.opened the scoring early on against Aberdeen in the semi-final. Craig

:01:16. > :01:20.Thomson takes charge of his third Edinburgh derby of the season. He

:01:20. > :01:26.is off to the European Chaabi jette in Holland and the Ukraine in a

:01:26. > :01:32.couple of weeks. -- European Championships. Billy Dodds, just

:01:32. > :01:42.before kick-off, what an ASDA? noise is incredible. The pressure

:01:42. > :01:43.

:01:43. > :01:48.is so intense on both of these teams. Absolutely vital to win it.

:01:48. > :01:58.That is why the atmosphere is the way it is. Craig Thomson gets the

:01:58. > :01:58.

:01:59. > :02:07.Scottish Cup Final on the way. There is a silver lining to go with

:02:07. > :02:17.the bragging rights in this match. To the Victor go the capital's

:02:17. > :02:23.boils. Himself one two Scott is Cup finals. Hearts have won seven. --

:02:23. > :02:27.Scottish Cup finals. We predicted AKG affair. Do you still go along

:02:27. > :02:37.that line? That depends on the first half-an-hour. If there is not

:02:37. > :02:38.

:02:38. > :02:44.a goal scored Butt macro it will get tactical. I think at tactical,

:02:44. > :02:54.nervous affair to start with. A goal would blow of his game right

:02:54. > :03:02.

:03:03. > :03:11.open. -- this game. Pat Fenlon early state of the game.

:03:11. > :03:21.Particularly a game of this magnitude. Stevenson missed the

:03:21. > :04:00.

:04:00. > :04:07.semi-final. He was suspended. The customer. A couple of nervy looking

:04:07. > :04:11.touches in the opening minutes. Pat Fenlon replaced Colin Calderwood as

:04:11. > :04:18.Hibs boss and managed to steer them Kier of relegation in the SPL,

:04:18. > :04:28.eventually. -- steer them clear. A big win for them against

:04:28. > :04:50.

:04:50. > :04:58.see that ball, go to his feet. -- come to his feet. Both players have

:04:58. > :05:07.Bishop composure. -- to show composure. Claros is not going to

:05:07. > :05:11.get that much time on the ball today. That is a tactic Hibs will

:05:11. > :05:17.use all afternoon, to try to get Leigh Griffiths in behind the

:05:17. > :05:23.Hearts defence. One thing the Hibs forward line will do is try to drag

:05:23. > :05:27.the centre halves out to the wide areas. Yes. Hibs will not stay

:05:27. > :05:37.central. Sometimes they will. Most of the time they move down the

:05:37. > :05:37.

:05:37. > :06:20.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds

:06:20. > :06:25.just watched Claros, showing good protection. When they drop in

:06:26. > :06:35.between defensive midfield, some of the Hibs midfield certainly need to

:06:36. > :06:36.

:06:36. > :07:23.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds

:07:23. > :07:33.have won 192 of them, Hibs over 176 but this is the derby. Forget all

:07:33. > :07:34.

:07:34. > :07:39.the others. -- Hibs won 76. Hearts of the teams coming into this game

:07:39. > :07:43.inform in this fixture. They haven't lost any of the last 10 end

:07:43. > :07:53.of the Derby's, they won all three of the season's meetings and

:07:53. > :07:53.

:07:53. > :08:36.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds

:08:36. > :08:44.finished 19 points above Hibs in Better possession that time for

:08:44. > :08:49.Hibernian. It doesn't surprise me after seven minutes gone that it is

:08:49. > :08:53.cagey, tense and nervous. People taking too many touches, that will

:08:53. > :08:58.be the way it is an to that settles down. Get a couple of touches,

:08:58. > :09:02.don't take too long on the ball. We saw what happened on the right side

:09:02. > :09:12.with Claros. The team that will when will be the team that shows

:09:12. > :09:17.

:09:17. > :09:27.more composure. -- that will win Today. -- Glasgow is Edinburgh for

:10:18. > :10:28.Side here. Not much in it at all. It is a chance for Hearts to bring

:10:28. > :10:30.

:10:30. > :10:40.set pieces. Another chance to demonstrate that. Danny Grainger

:10:40. > :10:48.

:10:48. > :10:54.involved. Craig Thomson wants a word with them as well. I think he

:10:54. > :11:00.could win the ball, if he wants to win that header, he can play in

:11:00. > :11:07.this is the ball and came off second best in that occasion,

:11:07. > :11:17.Griffiths. Seems to be telling someone of, Craig Thomson. Just

:11:17. > :11:21.

:11:21. > :11:31.putting Leigh Griffiths know he is think of that there was no card for

:11:31. > :11:31.

:11:31. > :12:26.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds

:12:26. > :12:29.quality about are not just his that right hand side of the pitch,

:12:29. > :12:33.it gives it to Kujabi. Slightly offside, a good decision by the

:12:33. > :12:43.linesman over there but if he carries on his run, he is moving

:12:43. > :13:02.

:13:02. > :13:12.into that Channel. A good ball back Still in play. It is Rudi Skacel's

:13:12. > :13:18.

:13:18. > :13:28.Claros, they are getting a bit lucky when the ball comes in. Rudi

:13:28. > :13:34.

:13:34. > :13:40.Skacel gets himself into a good mystery as well. On his way out at

:13:40. > :13:47.Tynecastle like Ian Black. Such an important player for the Jambos. 16

:13:47. > :13:57.goals this season. 46 goals in 96 appearances over two spells for

:13:57. > :14:07.Rudi Skacel. Does not always play as a striker. Today it in behind

:14:07. > :14:22.

:14:22. > :14:32.said, not surprising. As far as I am concerned. They need to show

:14:32. > :15:10.

:15:10. > :15:19.sides of Hibs. First corner of the match, lot of players waiting for

:15:19. > :15:29.this Danny Grainger corner. Still in the mixer... He will get a

:15:29. > :15:35.

:15:35. > :15:44.second bite and drops the ball... lips, they lead the Scottish Cup

:15:44. > :15:50.final! Not a classic goal, is it? But it does not matter, not a jot.

:15:50. > :15:54.The Hearts players are good in the air but Ryan McGowan eventually

:15:54. > :16:04.turned round, Kujabi is too deep, he has got to clear it but he

:16:04. > :16:14.doesn't. He wolds at home. What a start for Hearts. -- or wallops it

:16:14. > :16:16.

:16:16. > :16:23.home. His first goal of the season, stabbing past the man who captained

:16:23. > :16:31.Falkirk, he has one hand on a winner's medal now. A possible

:16:31. > :16:38.historical goal from Darren Barr. Just 14 minutes in. What a moment

:16:38. > :16:42.for him. He was a forgotten man of Tynecastle. Most of the season,

:16:42. > :16:51.people wondered if Darren Barr was still at the club. He scored and

:16:51. > :17:01.the Cup final. What a comeback for the lad. Not just any Cup final,

:17:01. > :17:24.

:17:24. > :17:34.score first today. Hearts have got Another opportunity for Hibs to put

:17:34. > :17:43.

:17:43. > :17:49.a good ball in to a good area, put towards the back post and it

:17:49. > :17:59.perhaps got a slight miss touch because he Bernier have a corner.

:17:59. > :18:04.

:18:04. > :18:09.Such an important touch from Hibs' first of the Cup final.

:18:09. > :18:19.Hearts scored after their first and only, so far. What can Hibs do

:18:19. > :18:51.

:18:51. > :19:01.is only one outcome. The referee left with their option. Kujabi have

:19:01. > :19:08.

:19:08. > :19:18.to be careful. Not the best of Gambian, Pa Kujabi. Pat Fenlon

:19:18. > :19:20.

:19:20. > :19:26.the clouds above as Danny Grainger prepares to take this free kick for

:19:26. > :19:36.Hearts. The noise is coming from the left-hand side, the Hearts

:19:36. > :19:44.

:19:44. > :19:49.Drops to Webster. Mark Brown holds on eventually be. No doubt it is

:19:49. > :19:55.beneficial to Hearts, it already has been. Again causing problems

:19:55. > :20:05.for Hearts, a decent ball in to a good area. He just still well in

:20:05. > :20:45.

:20:45. > :20:55.this Cup competition. -- Hibs still trying to get some confidence,

:20:55. > :20:57.

:20:57. > :21:07.trying to string some passes together. Too much on that for a

:21:07. > :21:11.

:21:11. > :21:21.car. -- for O'Connor. Could Chaabi is called the Gambian of Roberto

:21:21. > :21:26.

:21:26. > :21:34.Carlos. -- Kajaki. Look at him. It is a moment in time for him. He

:21:34. > :21:44.stands there. Picks nobody up. Darren Barr is played onside and

:21:44. > :22:12.

:22:12. > :22:22.Skacel was waiting. Grainger was just jumping the challenge. Hearts

:22:22. > :22:26.getting some joy down the wide areas. Driver, Skacel into changing.

:22:26. > :22:34.Certainly getting down at the wide areas. I wonder if at some point

:22:34. > :22:44.Hibs may think about flattening out that midfield four. Stevenson wins

:22:44. > :22:46.

:22:46. > :22:56.the free kick. Skacel's challenge. Claros appealing for a card. He did

:22:56. > :23:24.

:23:24. > :23:31.little bit. Claros wanted further O'Connor. He looked at the referee

:23:31. > :23:41.more in hope than expectation. McCague did ever so well. -- mack

:23:41. > :24:21.

:24:21. > :24:31.pace. It was a fantastic header. No in that at all. Never a penalty.

:24:31. > :24:48.

:24:48. > :24:58.Cup for an the time. That would take them two-thirds in the all-

:24:58. > :25:13.

:25:13. > :25:23.Falkirk. He was their captain before the left. -- before he left.

:25:23. > :25:24.

:25:24. > :25:28.He has a runners-up medal in a Scottish Cup Final. Years as the

:25:28. > :25:38.centre half, and Paulo Sergio just looked at him and thought, you can

:25:38. > :25:40.

:25:40. > :25:44.be a central midfielder. You can see just how much he enjoyed that.

:25:44. > :25:54.You'll never see Paulo Sergio's emotions really. He will be

:25:54. > :26:33.

:26:33. > :26:43.absolutely delighted with how offside. Really difficult for the

:26:43. > :27:01.

:27:01. > :27:08.linesman. A foul by McPake. He in the way to winning the Scottish

:27:08. > :27:18.Cup. -- Hearts. They have given themselves a chance to do it for a

:27:18. > :27:18.

:27:18. > :28:25.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds

:28:25. > :28:33.doubled their lead. They are well on their way to glory. They can

:28:33. > :28:43.almost touch the Scottish Cup. Rudi Skacel again. You said Hibs were

:28:43. > :28:51.toiling. Black faded into Skacel. I am sure it took Alnwick off James

:28:51. > :29:01.McPake. That is the difference. Hearts in dreamland. I long road

:29:01. > :29:02.

:29:02. > :29:08.back for Hibs. Seldom has anybody else over the last few years had

:29:09. > :29:17.such an impact as Rudi Skacel has. The hero of the Hearts supporters

:29:17. > :29:26.has put them two head against their most bitter rivals. It was a well-

:29:26. > :29:34.worked goal albeit with a deflection. Hibs are being done

:29:34. > :29:44.down the outside today. Hearts have plenty of time on the ball. That is

:29:44. > :29:48.

:29:48. > :29:54.why Black fed into Skacel and he did the rest. It is looking like a

:29:54. > :29:58.party down Gorgie way. He doesn't need the mother of all comebacks in

:29:58. > :30:08.the Mother of All of Derby's. Skacel's 17 of the season. He

:30:08. > :30:14.

:30:14. > :30:24.scored in the Cup final in 2006. This is a different kettle of fish.

:30:24. > :30:28.

:30:28. > :30:38.Hearts looking to pile on the pain for Hibernian. That was frustration.

:30:38. > :30:48.They need to stop Hearts getting forward. Hibs two behind. They need

:30:48. > :31:06.

:31:06. > :31:16.a goal, but they cannot afford to Hibs deal with it eventually. The

:31:16. > :31:34.

:31:34. > :31:44.ball. Grainger mops up. Great cover. Griffiths and O'Connor did well. It

:31:44. > :31:54.Grainger did not get across, he has had a chance. -- he has had a

:31:54. > :32:00.

:32:00. > :32:10.chance. Hibs need inspiration from somewhere. Kujabi has a second bite

:32:10. > :32:34.

:32:34. > :32:41.at it. Hearts thought that was that was a chance. A decent ball in

:32:41. > :32:49.the box. Slightly behind O'Connor. But make sure you hit the target.

:32:49. > :32:57.He does not do it. What a chance. The next goal is so crucial. Hearts

:32:57. > :33:07.get it, it is game over. It is looking that way anywhere. --

:33:07. > :33:13.

:33:13. > :33:21.Griffiths on the edge of the Hearts pair of the area. It would have

:33:21. > :33:31.been a lovely ball about 10 seconds earlier. He just delayed.

:33:31. > :33:41.Fenlon, his entire career was spent in his homeland, the goal there.

:33:41. > :33:41.

:33:41. > :33:51.Played 4 Bohemians and Shell Boro. -- Shell barn. Pat Fenlon may be

:33:51. > :33:52.

:33:52. > :34:02.asked to make a change. Hearts going down the wide areas.

:34:02. > :34:24.

:34:24. > :34:34.in the box. It is all Hearts at the moment. On his game, Driver is a

:34:34. > :34:36.

:34:36. > :34:46.top player. Still reminds his team- mates that he was worth �3 million

:34:46. > :35:01.

:35:01. > :35:09.the Craig Beattie not being able to play today. They may not need him

:35:09. > :35:13.away things are going. -- the way things are going. Hibs fans

:35:13. > :35:23.desperate for their team to get something. They cannot afford to

:35:23. > :35:29.

:35:29. > :35:34.lose the next goal. I do not think Hibs have turned up yet. Get the

:35:34. > :35:38.next goal and the game will change. That is what has to happen. If you

:35:38. > :35:46.get to half-time, that is exactly what Pat Fenlon will say to them.

:35:46. > :35:51.Hibs have not turned up. They have to get the ball to O'Connor. Maybe

:35:51. > :36:01.change the personnel, changed the shape. Something has to happen. The

:36:01. > :36:25.

:36:25. > :36:34.when teams have played Hibs. This through, they will have to see it

:36:34. > :36:37.again. Doherty left for dead by Driver. This in turn by Hanlon.

:36:37. > :36:47.Great goal line clearance from James McPake. Doing what he does

:36:47. > :36:48.

:36:48. > :36:58.best. Hearts again. Far and away the more dangerous. They have got

:36:58. > :37:10.

:37:11. > :37:16.to go Driver matched or keep him the way things are going, they

:37:16. > :37:26.would love to get a goal back. Tried to regroup, as Billy was

:37:26. > :37:34.

:37:34. > :37:38.Doyle as well, they still have attacking options. But it is

:37:38. > :37:48.creation they need because we know what damage Griffiths and O'Connor

:37:48. > :37:50.

:37:50. > :37:53.can do. Sometimes you can't do anything, but at least they have

:37:53. > :38:03.stuck Tom Soares into the right hand side now, tried to match

:38:03. > :38:05.

:38:05. > :38:15.Driver up early. James McPake, the Hibs captain, reported intervention,

:38:15. > :38:25.

:38:26. > :38:35.this one. He doesn't see it too North Stand, thought he had taken

:38:36. > :39:00.

:39:00. > :39:05.deep. Darren Barr is enjoying himself out there. All the hard

:39:05. > :39:14.players are, they have got the extra energy. -- all the Hearts

:39:14. > :39:20.players are. Pat Fenlon took Hibs the way to Dublin last week to try

:39:20. > :39:28.to get away from what was a bit of a media circus ahead of this game,

:39:28. > :39:38.understandably so. Since 1896 in the Scottish Cup Final, the last

:39:38. > :39:51.

:39:51. > :39:57.time they met but he has flown into the Queen Of The South to in that

:39:57. > :40:04.Billy Dodds was mentioning earlier. In the final defeat to ranges back

:40:04. > :40:12.in 2008. Four years ago now, I can't believe that. The first goal

:40:12. > :40:17.I think Stevie toss got the first goal. Hibs need that and get

:40:17. > :40:27.inspiration. I am sure they will get that if they score but if they

:40:27. > :40:56.

:40:56. > :41:06.lose a goal, I am sorry, all over. On that occasion, it was Darren

:41:06. > :41:11.

:41:12. > :41:18.Barr finding Suso, they have got make a change, Ivan Sproule will

:41:18. > :41:28.come on for them as Lewis Stevenson plays it into Griffiths. They need

:41:28. > :41:45.

:41:45. > :41:55.a bit of magic, he tried to put it just now. Tom Soares will take the

:41:55. > :42:10.

:42:10. > :42:17.something! It is the skipper who get it, James McPake breathed new

:42:17. > :42:22.life into the Scottish Cup Final. The Hibees are back in it! Well and

:42:22. > :42:26.truly game on. I said the next goal is crucial, well Hibs getting that

:42:26. > :42:32.goal out from the corner. Eventually James McPake takes a

:42:32. > :42:38.touch, comes to Claros, they work it back out to Tom Soares and they

:42:38. > :42:44.what a ball in the dangerous area and Tom Soares produces it. McPake

:42:44. > :42:54.get a tap-in. This Cup Final is well and truly blown wide open. It

:42:54. > :42:57.has all been about the James McPake defence, he scores his first Hibs

:42:57. > :43:07.goal in the Cup Final. Hibs have something to grab on to as Ivan

:43:07. > :43:39.

:43:39. > :43:49.Sproule replaces Jorge Claros. Game Where do we go from here? Griffiths

:43:49. > :43:57.

:43:57. > :44:07.is out left, I think Ivan Sproule certainly have got plenty to

:44:07. > :44:08.

:44:08. > :44:15.support. A good change in my book, from Pat Fenlon. It is a Hibs free

:44:15. > :44:22.kick. Andy Webster back in the Scotland squad, the Scotland boss

:44:22. > :44:26.in the studio at half-time, they will be going to Florida for the

:44:26. > :44:29.friendly against the US. It is a Hibernian free kick and although a

:44:29. > :44:36.sudden they are looking for an equaliser just before half-time.

:44:36. > :44:42.They might need the interval to regroup, we thought earlier.

:44:42. > :44:52.can see how much a little changed shape... A goal has just changed

:44:52. > :45:20.

:45:20. > :45:30.this goal and turned it on its head. back. Good play from Stephenson,

:45:30. > :45:48.

:45:48. > :45:52.They need to keep their heads the innocent one. I don't think

:45:52. > :46:00.that is intentional from Ian Black. Perhaps a free kick, but not

:46:00. > :46:06.intentional. Craig Thomson has let it go. That incident, the potential

:46:06. > :46:13.to his right up it into the last minute of the first half, it has

:46:13. > :46:23.flown by. We said a goal early would blow this game wide open and

:46:23. > :46:56.

:46:56. > :47:04.This William Hill Scottish Cup into that minute of stoppage time.

:47:04. > :47:09.A trickier team talk now, Paulo Sergio. Everything we were talking

:47:09. > :47:16.about a moment ago, Ivan Sproule, getting to Driver, Hearts are

:47:16. > :47:23.pushed back, James McPake gets fouled and Hibs get the ball again.

:47:23. > :47:33.They have got momentum now, no doubt. Can Hibs find what would be

:47:33. > :47:53.

:47:53. > :48:01.a sensational level there before the ball... Was a WHISTLE BLOWS For

:48:01. > :48:08.what they first half we have had. The Skacel made it two. A fantastic

:48:08. > :48:12.first half. This was the Open -- opener from Darren Barr to give

:48:12. > :48:15.Hearts the lead. They looked comfortable at that stage. The

:48:15. > :48:20.former Falkirk skipper opening the scoring, it looked even more

:48:20. > :48:30.comfortable, Rudi Skacel's deflected goal off James McPake

:48:30. > :48:31.

:48:31. > :48:34.made it 2-0. The Czech hero does what he does best but then then

:48:34. > :48:40.knocking it past Jamie MacDonald. That is what has made this

:48:40. > :48:44.interesting. James McPake appalling Hibernian back into it. It was the

:48:44. > :48:50.first half that flew by, the second half is not to be missed. Half-time

:48:50. > :48:58.at the National Stadium is a Bennion 1, Heart of Midlothian, two.

:48:58. > :49:07.-- Hibernian 1. ROB MACLEAN: It is 2-1, Hearts here

:49:07. > :49:10.This Hibs fans right in front of us in the studio were desolate and

:49:10. > :49:14.disconsolate and probably contemplating heading homewards but

:49:14. > :49:17.that's James McPake goal has changed the complexion.

:49:17. > :49:21.certainly has and that is what makes football a wonderful game.

:49:22. > :49:25.Just when you think trouble as Hibs did, up pops James McPake and

:49:25. > :49:29.brings them right back into the game. It will be a different half-

:49:29. > :49:33.time in both dressing rooms. Hearts going in winning 2-0 would have

:49:33. > :49:37.been a situation where the manager just needs to praise them for what

:49:37. > :49:44.they have done. After that, keep them on their toes and get an early

:49:44. > :49:47.goal in the second half. Now the momentum has shifted a bit. Pat

:49:47. > :49:51.Fenlon's team talk will be a lot easier than it would have been.

:49:51. > :49:55.much doubt about who was the better team? By a long way, Hearts a

:49:55. > :50:00.better team in almost every single department. The tactical battle,

:50:00. > :50:05.they have won that quite easily. 2- 0, I was like the rest of the Hibs

:50:05. > :50:11.fans out there. I could not see any way out, lack of belief. Craig and

:50:11. > :50:14.I were both saying that they were all over the place. But a couple of

:50:14. > :50:20.changes near the end, a substitution made a bit of a

:50:20. > :50:24.difference but the goal, that is it. In the end, there is a bit more

:50:24. > :50:30.belief in the Hibs team. He can see it, they are not hiding. From what

:50:30. > :50:35.was a hopeless situation, they have set alight to the Hibs fans and

:50:35. > :50:37.players. Pat and then it will be pleased that his team is back in,

:50:37. > :50:43.are concerned will they be about that they are getting ravaged in

:50:43. > :50:48.the wide areas? His two best players are his strikers so after

:50:48. > :50:54.that, what he has done his play A narrow midfield. Almost like a

:50:54. > :50:57.Diamond. It has not worked. Immediately they are looking for a

:50:57. > :51:04.safe pass and that saved pass which Hearts have every time his wide.

:51:04. > :51:08.They have not managed to get it. They tried to force things, p very

:51:08. > :51:12.disjointed but Hearts, Ian Black in particular, he is bring the ball

:51:12. > :51:19.all over the pitch, changing the point of attack and getting Driver

:51:19. > :51:29.and Suso on the ball. I think they had been out-thought in the first

:51:29. > :51:32.

:51:32. > :51:35.half. Ivan Sproule coming on gives You did suggest that organised

:51:35. > :51:45.chaos at set pieces from Hearts may chaos at set pieces from Hearts may

:51:45. > :51:46.

:51:46. > :51:49.wreak havoc and it certainly did? They have a lot of power in the air.

:51:49. > :51:59.They will chase everything. There is a great willingness within their

:51:59. > :52:07.group. It is good play. It is not a fluke. He played for it. You cannot

:52:07. > :52:17.lose two header is in your own box. You asking for trouble. You have

:52:17. > :52:21.

:52:21. > :52:24.got to defend better than this. You are asking for trouble. You cannot

:52:24. > :52:33.get an organised structure in defence when the player as are

:52:33. > :52:43.running everywhere. Go And When You're ball. They did not win it. -

:52:43. > :52:47.

:52:47. > :52:55.The ball control absolutely anywhere. Kujabi should have been

:52:55. > :53:03.out. Yes, he was too deep. He was ball-watching. He got caught. Basic

:53:03. > :53:07.defending, When You're header. Height and distance. Make sure you

:53:07. > :53:17.get the header out of the danger area. It has been a problem for

:53:17. > :53:19.

:53:19. > :53:24.Hibs. Hibs have not been taken by surprise. They cannot claim that.

:53:24. > :53:29.We saw the organised chaos for the first goal. Rudi Skacel's ability

:53:29. > :53:35.to find pockets of space. Give him this sort of room and he is liable

:53:35. > :53:45.to do this sort of damage. This is the first reasonable passing

:53:45. > :53:57.

:53:57. > :54:05.between the lines. He is unmarked. Great played by Black. You cannot

:54:05. > :54:11.leave Skacel in the box. He is so accurate with shooting. Good play

:54:11. > :54:21.by Ian Black. This is poor defending. Do not give cat --

:54:21. > :54:22.

:54:23. > :54:28.Skacel space. That is far too much space. They want the Claros to kill

:54:28. > :54:33.the space. That must have been a big part of the pre-match

:54:33. > :54:37.discussion for Hibs, on top of what they were going to give themselves.

:54:37. > :54:42.What is the danger in the Hearts team? Rudi Skacel. They would have

:54:42. > :54:48.spoken about their ability in set pieces. And Skacel's ability to

:54:48. > :54:58.pick up good position to in front of that defence. They get the two

:54:58. > :54:59.

:54:59. > :55:03.goals from exactly the two things I think Hibs are lucky to be back

:55:03. > :55:09.in the game at this point. Hearts have been the better side.

:55:09. > :55:12.Deservedly in front. That lifeline could be crucial for Hibs. They may

:55:12. > :55:22.be lucky to be back in the game but be lucky to be back in the game but

:55:22. > :55:32.it does change the complexion? have not been getting wide. Until

:55:32. > :55:32.

:55:32. > :55:38.now. They get the ball wide here. Hearts get plenty of players behind

:55:38. > :55:43.the ball. But they are not that good at defending from Balls in

:55:43. > :55:51.this area. Having said that, it is the hardest area to defend. What

:55:51. > :55:57.happens here, Zaliukas left that area. He cannot get out to the ball

:55:57. > :56:03.to stop the cross. There is no point. He has made the decision to

:56:03. > :56:11.go. He could never get there. It encourages the past. It is poor

:56:11. > :56:17.defending. They had plenty of defenders. They will get the

:56:17. > :56:23.numbers back there. But you get close enough to make sure they do

:56:23. > :56:30.not do anything. They were still plenty of guys in there.

:56:30. > :56:35.Zaliukas left that position but always must be filled, -- he left

:56:35. > :56:40.the position that always must be filled. It leaves a hole. There is

:56:40. > :56:44.not time to react. It was a fantastic ball into the box. You

:56:44. > :56:54.must credit James might pay quick following the ball. It was a dummy

:56:54. > :56:55.

:56:55. > :56:58.by O'Connor. -- James McPake. It changes the game and makes the

:56:59. > :57:06.second have more exciting to stop these guys are now making the noise

:57:06. > :57:14.behind us. Every time Hearts get a set piece, there is chaos? I do

:57:14. > :57:24.like what they do. They run in all sorts of different directions. How

:57:24. > :57:25.

:57:25. > :57:33.do you Mark that? There are so many bodies. If you are fortunate that

:57:33. > :57:38.it happens to drop there, you get a shot. Driver has been struggling to

:57:38. > :57:42.return from his injuries. We are starting to see him getting back to

:57:42. > :57:49.his best. This was good old- fashioned wing play. They should

:57:49. > :57:57.have scored there. Great defending from James McPake. He is having

:57:57. > :58:03.some effect on the game. Forget that, he is having some effect on

:58:03. > :58:10.Hibs's season. Kujabi is having a difficult afternoon in the left-

:58:10. > :58:16.back area. Rapaic scored the goal and the saved HIPS twice already. -

:58:16. > :58:21.- McPake. He may have to do more. What Hibs do have is a goal threat.

:58:21. > :58:26.They need to provide ammunition for och, and Griffiths. This is one you

:58:26. > :58:31.would expect Garry O'Connor to put away, isn't it? I think this was a

:58:31. > :58:41.harder chance. It bounced just before them. It is really difficult

:58:41. > :58:43.

:58:43. > :58:52.on the spin to keep the ball down. He has courted halfway up his shame.

:58:52. > :59:00.-- he has kicked it have where position. Let's be fair, Hearts

:59:00. > :59:04.have been a lot better. Hearts have been a lot more dangerous. The vast

:59:04. > :59:08.majority of the play, the vast majority of the chances, it has

:59:08. > :59:17.been happening down there in front of us. Will Hearts had the belief

:59:17. > :59:23.to think, hang on a minute, we had that game won? 2-0 is always a skip

:59:23. > :59:27.-- dangerous score. There is nothing to lose. I do not think

:59:27. > :59:32.Hibs can be any worse than they have been in the first half. Hearts

:59:32. > :59:37.played quite well in the first half. The momentum shift towards Hibs.

:59:37. > :59:45.They have not played particularly well. They have now got a little

:59:45. > :59:50.bit of width and pace. Well done to Pat Fenlon. It did not go well at

:59:50. > :59:53.the start. He lost the tactical battle. But if he had to change it,

:59:53. > :00:03.he tasted before half-time. lucky was Ian Black not to see a

:00:03. > :00:07.card for this? Yes. If we slow it down, have a look at it again. He

:00:07. > :00:15.has led with his elbow. Because it was early in the game, he has got

:00:15. > :00:23.away with it. In a 90% of games other than the Scottish Cup Final,

:00:23. > :00:27.that is yellow. The other 10% is a red. I think the referee wants to

:00:27. > :00:32.keep the game from boiling over. Ian has been committed in going for

:00:32. > :00:38.the ball. There is nothing wrong with that. But when you lead with

:00:38. > :00:44.you Al ball, you asking for trouble. There are a couple of times he has

:00:44. > :00:50.been wound up by players. Do you expect Hibs to get back into this

:00:50. > :01:00.game? Have they got the belief? I do not think they can have anybody

:01:00. > :01:04.sitting deep as a midfielder, which means more room for Skacel. I do

:01:04. > :01:11.not know what Hibs can do to stop the danger from be crosses, from

:01:11. > :01:18.the long throws, from the corner kicks. I still think Hearts are so

:01:18. > :01:22.far Fredericks. We have talked plenty. Let us some up the story of

:01:22. > :01:28.the first path of this Scottish Cup Final. Drama from the opening

:01:29. > :01:34.moments. Darren Barr with his first goal fur Hearts. Garry O'Connor

:01:34. > :01:40.missed that chance. Almost inevitably Rudi Skacel with his

:01:40. > :01:48.17th goal of the season made it 2. And James McPake has breathed life

:01:48. > :01:58.back into Hibs just before half- time. Back to Liam McLeod and Billy

:01:58. > :02:03.

:02:03. > :02:08.to the first. It is a lot Philip up do. No changes in the Hibernian

:02:08. > :02:16.side at half-time. Ivan Sproule came on further Claros before half-

:02:16. > :02:20.time. No changes for Hearts either. Making their way back onto the Park.

:02:20. > :02:27.Those Hibs fans will be in better spirits than there were five

:02:27. > :02:32.minutes before half-time. James McPake scoop one of the line. And

:02:32. > :02:37.at the other end he brought Hibernian back into the Scottish

:02:37. > :02:47.Cup Final. Andy Webster, lifted the Cup a couple of years ago when he

:02:47. > :02:50.

:02:50. > :02:55.was with Dundee United, he skippered them,... Hibs have won

:02:55. > :03:04.nine of the 30 in Scottish Cup meetings and have lost the last

:03:04. > :03:10.three against Hearts. It will be them who kick-off the second half.

:03:10. > :03:15.They need a ticket on from that shock in the arm they got at the

:03:15. > :03:21.end of the opening 45 minutes. -- shot in the arm. Rudi Skacel making

:03:21. > :03:28.his way on to the Park. Such a good atmosphere here today. A once-in-a-

:03:28. > :03:38.lifetime opportunity for everybody to see Hibernian take on Hearts.

:03:38. > :03:45.

:03:45. > :03:55.Once in a century, once in many bottom of your screen. No further

:03:55. > :04:14.

:04:14. > :04:24.Hearts have a penalty kick right at the start of the second half.

:04:24. > :04:30.

:04:30. > :04:37.was a body blow. A red card! Red fur Kujabi. Hibs, having managed to

:04:37. > :04:41.resurrect their hopes before half- time, the second yellow card for a

:04:41. > :04:48.Pa Saikou Kujabi. Hearts have a chance of a third. Double jeopardy

:04:48. > :04:54.for Hibernian. I think it is a harsh sending off of. I do not

:04:54. > :05:01.think it is intentional. It is a certain penalty. Not appear

:05:01. > :05:08.goalscoring opportunity. A little Paul the Jersey. -- a little tug at

:05:08. > :05:18.the Jersey. Hearts with a fantastic chance. Danny Grainger... Yes

:05:18. > :05:31.

:05:31. > :05:37.Coors! -- he scores! Hearts had composure, he steps up, and even if

:05:37. > :05:42.the goalkeeper goes the right way, it is a great penalty. With

:05:42. > :05:47.Hibernian down to 10 men, Hearts lead 3-1, it is a long way back for

:05:48. > :05:53.Hibs. Danny Grainger had so much Scottish Cup partake in the past.

:05:53. > :06:00.He would have been part of the Gretna squad that played against

:06:00. > :06:05.Hearts in 2006. That was snatched away from him a few days before. He

:06:05. > :06:13.could not play, but he is playing in this one. That could be the

:06:13. > :06:18.crucial goal in the 2012 Scottish Cup final. His manager knows it.

:06:18. > :06:25.is a safeguard now, 10 men, and a two-goal lead. It was funny,

:06:25. > :06:33.watching the replays, Ian Black could not look at it. Then, Ian

:06:33. > :06:42.Black started celebrating. He has been sent off for pulling the shirt,

:06:42. > :06:52.it is a booking events. -- events. The clip of the heels is why Craig

:06:52. > :07:02.

:07:02. > :07:07.going to be a very long second half for Hibs. The manager makes the

:07:07. > :07:12.right changes, he makes the might - - right formation changes,

:07:12. > :07:21.personnel changes, the momentum is going well, and then they concede a

:07:21. > :07:31.penalty and go down to 10 men. Where does Pat Fenlon go from here?

:07:31. > :07:35.

:07:35. > :07:44.It is another! Hearts are rampant! Rhianna Govan! -- Ryan McGowan!

:07:44. > :07:50.is all over. Hibs switch-off. They cannot leave Rudi Skacel in the box.

:07:50. > :08:00.It is a little touched, and you cannot leave Rudi Skacel there. It

:08:00. > :08:04.is helped on by Stephen Elliott. Ryan McGowan is gambling. Game over

:08:04. > :08:10.for Hibs. Ryan McGowan gleefully heads the ball into the net. It is

:08:10. > :08:15.his third goal of the season, two have come against Hibs. Paulo

:08:15. > :08:23.Sergio is on the verge of greatness, as is Ryan McGowan. The stuff you

:08:23. > :08:27.dream about. Ryan McGowan's father came over from Australia on Monday,

:08:27. > :08:37.he did not know about it until he came to pick him up from the

:08:37. > :08:43.

:08:43. > :08:48.airport. What a moment for the barely had time to celebrate,

:08:48. > :08:52.because Ryan McGowan made it four, and the Hibs fans head for the

:08:52. > :09:02.exits. The worst thing for the Hibernian supporters, it could get

:09:02. > :09:05.a heck of a lot worse. It is cruel. They have not played well for long

:09:05. > :09:14.spells, but they gave their supporters something to cheer about

:09:14. > :09:19.just before half-time. But when you give a penalty away, Pa Saikou

:09:19. > :09:29.Kujabi goes off, he leaves them vulnerable. Hearts get a fourth

:09:29. > :09:45.

:09:45. > :09:50.goal. Hibs fans do not want to risk four, this game. They do not want

:09:50. > :09:56.to open it up any more, as a Hibs player. But damage limitation is

:09:56. > :10:04.the shout now. Try to play compact, still a goal. Do not open up like

:10:04. > :10:08.this. This could be a rout, you do not want that in a Cup final.

:10:08. > :10:17.header is over the crossbar. Marius Zaliukas trying to get in on the

:10:17. > :10:23.act. Again, it is from a set-piece. All day long, they have lost goals

:10:23. > :10:33.from set-pieces. They nearly did so again. Marius Zaliukas got the

:10:33. > :10:45.

:10:45. > :10:50.it will be a yellow card. Not even a hard decision from Craig Thomson.

:10:50. > :11:00.Hearts have been rampant. You cannot legislate for Pa Saikou

:11:00. > :11:01.

:11:01. > :11:05.Kujabi making that challenger. They are getting frustrated now. I do

:11:05. > :11:15.not think it would have been his second yellow card for the

:11:15. > :11:15.

:11:15. > :11:25.unintentional clip, but people to shed, the referee had no choice. --

:11:25. > :11:46.

:11:46. > :11:50.there. Craig Thomson had a look at that. Credit to Suso Santana. He

:11:50. > :12:00.does not play for the penalty. Leigh Griffiths has got to calm

:12:00. > :12:10.

:12:10. > :12:20.down. They cannot get frustrated the semi-final against 2006. Hearts

:12:20. > :12:20.

:12:20. > :13:00.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds

:13:00. > :13:06.beak Gretna in the final, 4-0. It does not matter! They are getting

:13:06. > :13:10.more room all over the pitch. Pat Fenlon has been put through the

:13:10. > :13:15.mill today. He made the right tactical changes, but now Lewis

:13:16. > :13:19.Stevenson is having to fill in at right-back, there is no way to turn

:13:19. > :13:27.for them, they just have to make sure they do not lose this by a

:13:27. > :13:37.barrow load. It is all going horribly wrong for Hibernian.

:13:37. > :13:37.

:13:37. > :14:29.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds

:14:29. > :14:35.for Pat Fenlon. Still 35 minutes to fancied them in that situation.

:14:35. > :14:42.Andy Webster did ever so well. He thinks, I will have a go, but Andy

:14:42. > :14:49.Webster stands up. It was a great block, really good defending.

:14:49. > :14:59.McGowan is still struggling. It is because of this, A&E into the side.

:14:59. > :15:19.

:15:19. > :15:24.a player or a coach. -- lost to Hibernian. His career was ravaged

:15:24. > :15:31.by injury. It looks as if he will have another enjoyable night. He

:15:31. > :15:41.looks relaxed, he can really enjoy it and now, 4-1 up. Hibernian down

:15:41. > :15:41.

:15:41. > :17:16.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds

:17:16. > :17:20.wall of maroon jerseys. He was a half-time, we are looking at

:17:20. > :17:28.Hibernian's frailties, but you have to credit Hearts, the way they have

:17:28. > :17:36.gone about their business. They can now enjoy it. They have dominated

:17:37. > :17:46.it. The performance they had against Celtic in the semi-final

:17:47. > :18:10.

:18:10. > :18:15.player. Sometimes, you just want to leave the bitter end, but they

:18:15. > :18:25.cannot afford to do that. Especially after Pa Saikou Kujabi

:18:25. > :18:33.

:18:33. > :18:42.for Celtic when they beat Dunfermline in 2007. This is not a

:35:26. > :35:32.Hibernian. B62 game when Hearts were thump. But this, by a long way,

:35:32. > :35:42.will supersede those. The Hibs fans know it as well as the Hearts fans

:35:47. > :35:55.do. The cry is, we want sex. -- we want six. It's bad enough losing

:35:55. > :36:05.key rivals and the final, but even worse with the scoreline. They want

:47:24. > :47:30.penalty. Ryan McGowan scored the on to the 90... He is speaking to

:48:35. > :48:44.Hearts have won the Scottish Cup. Edinburgh will be painted no rain

:48:44. > :48:50.tonight. -- maroon. Darren Barr got the party started. The mother of

:48:50. > :48:55.all Edinburgh derbies has been won by Hearts. They have filleted their

:48:55. > :48:59.rivals on the biggest stage of them all in this country. Paulo Sergio

:49:27. > :49:32.deserve every minute of it. Did you expect a tough afternoon? Yes, but

:49:32. > :49:36.we knew that if we went about our business, we could do that. The

:49:36. > :49:42.boys have been unbelievable. What does it mean for this bunch of

:49:42. > :49:47.players and the manager? It is massive. We got past Celtic, and we

:49:47. > :49:53.said, let's do it. The manager has kept as relaxed, and he told us to

:50:46. > :50:51.man, suppressing a smile, Alex Salmond, Hearts supporter. Pat

:50:51. > :50:57.Nevin and Craig Levein here. We could not have expected that we

:50:57. > :51:03.would see such a one-sided final? No. Apart from possibly five

:51:03. > :51:07.minutes before half-time, Hearts completely dominated. That is very

:51:08. > :51:12.unusual for a cup final. You do not often see that. You do not often

:51:12. > :51:20.see one team so in control. Once Hibs went down to ten men, it was

:51:20. > :51:25.only a matter of how many goals Hearts would score. They kept

:51:25. > :51:29.possession of the ball rather than trying to go after more goals. That

:51:29. > :51:33.guy in the picture, Ian Black, I thought he was the best player on

:51:33. > :51:42.show today. I thought he was excellent. Andy Webster had an

:51:42. > :51:47.excellent match. Really pleased about Andrew Driver. He is eligible

:51:47. > :51:57.to play for Scotland. He has worked hard to get back to the levels he

:51:57. > :51:58.

:51:58. > :52:04.was that. -- he was that. I am thrilled he is back. He can fly

:52:04. > :52:09.next year. Very special player. Today was always going to be about

:52:09. > :52:15.winners and losers. For Hibs to lose was bad enough, to take that

:52:15. > :52:22.sort of battering was a nightmare? Yes. In the end, he just did not

:52:22. > :52:32.turn a up. Played poorly. Player for player Hearts were better

:52:32. > :52:37.anywhere. On the day they were far better. I think Paulo Sergio came

:52:37. > :52:44.in and took over a good group of players. They are good players at

:52:44. > :52:50.Hearts. I feel Pat Fenlon has had to come in to the Hibs job and has

:52:50. > :52:56.had to do a patch up job it away. Andy, how long will it take to wipe

:52:56. > :53:05.that smile of pure Phase? Probably Monday morning when I fly out.

:53:05. > :53:11.modern afternoon. Brilliant. Great to go two up. They got a goal back

:53:11. > :53:21.before half-time. He expected to be tougher? The wall is expected to be

:53:21. > :53:36.

:53:36. > :53:44.tougher than that. It is never easy. It is a day these guys will not

:53:44. > :53:49.forget ever. It is a day that the Hearts fans can only have dreamt of.

:53:49. > :53:55.Not in several lifetimes has there been a cup final quite like it. An

:53:55. > :54:05.Edinburgh derby Cup final. It has been won, as it was the last time

:54:05. > :54:05.

:54:05. > :54:12.in 1896, by heart of Midlothian. Paulo Sergio joined the glitterati

:54:12. > :54:22.at Hearts. Where were his future the? The jumbos name etched onto

:54:22. > :54:29.the oldest trophy in world football. -- the jam boils. As Rob said,

:54:29. > :54:39.there has to be a loser. Today it is Hibernian. The pain continues

:54:39. > :54:43.for them. It will now stretch into 111 years since they last won at

:54:43. > :54:50.the Scottish Cup. There are dreams have been shattered as Hearts

:54:50. > :54:59.realised there's. Ivan Sproule. He won the League Cup and 2007. So did

:54:59. > :55:08.Lewis Stevenson. They trooped off. Claros was sacrificed early in the

:55:08. > :55:17.game. Nobody ever remembers where they put these medals. A horrible

:55:17. > :55:24.feeling? Not nice. Garry O'Connor has thrown his medal away. That is

:55:24. > :55:30.how much it means to them. Nothing. Or 80 minutes they did not play.

:55:30. > :55:36.There were circumstances in the second half when Kujabi was sent

:55:36. > :55:40.off. Such a frustrating day for the Hibs players and fans. You have got

:55:40. > :55:49.to feel for them. You do not want to lose to your biggest rivals.

:55:49. > :55:58.Especially by this scoreline. Thomson off to euro 2012 in Poland

:55:58. > :56:03.and the Ukraine. -- euro 2012. The stage is now set for Hearts. And

:56:03. > :56:13.four or Marriott's Zaliukas to lift the Scottish Cup. He has actually

:56:13. > :56:14.

:56:14. > :56:24.dreamt about it. He is about to realise that now. He is excited,

:56:24. > :56:24.

:56:25. > :56:31.the Lithuanian. He makes his way up, the Hearts skipper. Never mind the

:56:31. > :56:40.more recent Cup victories, this is the one that will mean the most --

:56:41. > :56:50.for those who came from the east. Marius Zaliukas lifts the Scottish

:56:51. > :56:59.

:56:59. > :57:09.Cup. The 7-0 defeat in 1973. Big capital claim for Hibs. They have

:57:09. > :57:11.

:57:11. > :57:21.been trumped by this, Big Time. Ryan McGowan, whose family is here

:57:21. > :57:26.to watch this. He scored. Craig Beattie. He got the late penalty

:57:26. > :57:34.against Celtic in the semi-final. Andrew Driver. An end to the misery

:57:34. > :57:42.of the last few years. Suso lifting the trophy. Perhaps a surprise

:57:42. > :57:46.starter for some. A special cheer for Rudi Skacel. They love him.

:57:46. > :57:56.of the match. I would have gone for Black, personally. He certainly

:57:56. > :58:00.

:58:00. > :58:10.played his part. Ian Black will get a special cheer as well. That will

:58:10. > :58:13.

:58:13. > :58:23.be in the Black family album very soon, that picture. Mark Richards,

:58:23. > :58:33.the substitute goalie. -- Mark Ridgers. Paulo Sergio. He has

:58:33. > :58:33.

:58:33. > :58:40.guided Hearts to the Scottish Cup. I think there is a bit of emotion.

:58:40. > :58:50.Not often you see that. It is not a normal day now. He is certainly

:58:50. > :58:52.

:58:52. > :58:58.enjoying it. Great moment for a Paulo Sergio. Plenty of managerial

:58:58. > :59:03.experience in his homeland. His first spell in Scotland. He has

:59:03. > :59:11.come to London and has guided Hearts to Scottish glory. -- Camden.

:59:11. > :59:21.Those guys are late in snow at Tynecastle! -- legends. Three

:59:30. > :59:40.And eighth Scottish Cup triumph for Hearts. Does see map now above

:59:40. > :59:48.Aberdeen in the pecking order. -- they are above. This means as much

:59:48. > :59:54.if not have more than any other triumph in Hearts history. To

:59:54. > :59:59.absolutely annihilated their great rivals in the National Stadium. I

:59:59. > :00:09.am sure they could not have dreamt it would be in such an emphatic

:00:09. > :00:22.

:00:22. > :00:32.Hearts went out of this competition at the first hurdle in three of the

:00:32. > :00:52.

:00:52. > :00:55.last four seasons. They had gone Gary Lough. He was the man who was

:00:55. > :01:03.left standing when Jim Jefferies and Billy Brown left the club in

:01:03. > :01:11.August. To be replaced by Paulo Sergio and his team. Gary Lough is

:01:11. > :01:21.still there. The Hearts players go agreed their families. Most players

:01:22. > :01:26.on the pitch. You cannot beat this moment. You really cannot. Rudi

:01:26. > :01:36.Skacel is with Chris McLaughlin. Congratulations. A very happy man?

:02:16. > :02:23.way to say goodbye. See what is Rudi Skacel, whose first spell at

:02:23. > :02:28.the club ended with the Scottish Cup. He scored that day as well.

:02:28. > :02:32.That game finished 1-1 and went all the way to penalties. Skacel may

:02:33. > :02:42.have ended his second spell with the Scottish Cup again. You never

:02:44. > :02:49.know in this game. That is one of the cliches they always is. -- used.

:03:24. > :03:32.Let us hear from Paulo Sergio. Congratulations. How does this

:03:32. > :03:42.feel? Thank you very much. Great. It is what we want. It is what

:03:42. > :03:42.

:03:42. > :03:47.these people deserve. I am so happy and so proud. I am sure you could

:03:47. > :03:57.not have even planned for 5-1? does not matter. The final is to

:03:57. > :04:01.

:04:01. > :04:11.win. Not to play very well or mack. We played what the game gave.

:04:11. > :04:15.

:04:15. > :04:19.Nothing to save. Unless a word for Hibernian. For them and their

:04:19. > :04:27.supporters, hopefully in the future they will have all the big games

:04:27. > :04:37.like this one. All the respect for our opponents. Congratulations.

:04:37. > :04:38.

:04:38. > :04:48.Thank you. Will it Paulo Sergio t a one season wonder or What t be back

:04:48. > :04:54.next campaign? We do not know. Joyful Hearts in Adam Brett tonight.

:04:54. > :05:00.-- Glasgow. It is a day of horror from -- for Hibernian. Danny

:05:00. > :05:07.Grainger. The happy Grainger family. These are the days you want to be a

:05:07. > :05:13.footballer for. To score M1 is even more special. I lost my grandad

:05:13. > :05:18.before the semi-final. Today was massive for me and my family. The

:05:18. > :05:24.goal is for my grandad. That was an She Ju deal for you today? Yes. I

:05:24. > :05:30.have not really being able to get over things. Today has been massive

:05:30. > :05:34.for all of us. My friends and family travelled up de Simic. My

:05:34. > :05:42.son is here as well. It is great for him to look back on. I am so

:05:42. > :05:52.happy. Reidy deserves all the credit. He has been fantastic.

:05:52. > :05:52.

:05:52. > :05:59.Today shows how good a team we can A big surge of emotion for Danny

:05:59. > :06:09.Grainger, the scorer of the second path penalty, followed by the row

:06:09. > :06:12.

:06:12. > :06:21.Rudi Skacel's second put the icing on the cake at the end. No room is

:06:21. > :06:29.the colour. -- marooned. It will be the colour in the capital tonight.

:06:29. > :06:39.The celebrations go on and on. No Hearts fad has left. At the other

:06:39. > :06:44.end of the ground, the stands are completely empty. Conflicting

:06:44. > :06:49.emotions at the end. It was always going to be this way. Yes, one team

:06:49. > :06:55.had to win and one team had to lose it. None of us expected such an

:06:55. > :07:01.emphatic victory for Hearts. All of their best players were wearing a

:07:01. > :07:05.maroon. They thoroughly deserved the victory. The trepidation that

:07:05. > :07:09.the supporters had before the match about not being able to celebrate

:07:09. > :07:14.at the end was proved unfounded. They have won the game very

:07:14. > :07:18.comfortably. Some great performances. Let's hear from the

:07:18. > :07:27.captain. Fantastic scenes behind you, what

:07:27. > :07:31.an afternoon. It is brilliant, Alison! It is a brilliant feeling.

:07:31. > :07:37.You have been around a long time, you have grown to love the club,

:07:37. > :07:45.what does it mean for you personally? This will take a place

:07:46. > :07:54.inside of May. -- inside of me. It is brilliant. A very big party

:07:54. > :08:01.tonight? Yes, and tomorrow as well! We have interviewed at just about

:08:01. > :08:09.everyone now! Smiles on faces all round, what a special day for

:08:09. > :08:17.Hearts. An interesting sadistic, three Scottish Cups in 14 years for

:08:18. > :08:22.Hearts -- statistic. It is not really about Hibernian today, Pat

:08:22. > :08:28.Fenlon had to save the club from relegation, get into a cup final

:08:28. > :08:34.was a bonus. It is painful, but he has got to rebuild the team. Half

:08:35. > :08:39.of those players will not be here next season. I feel sorry for

:08:39. > :08:46.Hearts, in an awed way, because they played brilliantly today, they

:08:46. > :08:49.were by miles the better team, and Paulo Sergio does not seem excited.

:08:49. > :08:56.I do not think he has got the chance to build what he wants to

:08:56. > :09:01.build. Will the best players be there next season? On days like

:09:01. > :09:06.today, you think that you are greedy for it, you want to give

:09:06. > :09:12.this to the fans every year. But once he gets a team capable of

:09:12. > :09:17.winning it, can he afford to keep it on? These are questions for

:09:17. > :09:22.tomorrow. Although I will ask them again in five minutes! For the

:09:22. > :09:26.moment, it is about that special feeling. You have got to the cat

:09:26. > :09:31.what has happened to them this season. -- you have got to look at

:09:31. > :09:34.what has happened. There has always been something going on, but this

:09:34. > :09:39.season has been really tough for the manager. He does not know the

:09:39. > :09:45.club, the players, it has issues with a salary problems, it has got

:09:45. > :09:48.to keep the team together, and it is a great credit to the players

:09:48. > :09:57.that they have got to the Cup final. Today has been easy, the way they

:09:57. > :10:01.have played. Hibernian were not capable.

:10:01. > :10:05.Can be quite believe you have helped to make this happen?

:10:05. > :10:12.cannot believe it is happening at the minute. To see the supporters,

:10:12. > :10:19.it is unbelievable. It is brilliant. Talk me through the golf. I could

:10:19. > :10:25.not get my breath back. It was the spur of the moment. It was my first

:10:25. > :10:31.goal. It was a pretty important one. I was just happy that we started

:10:31. > :10:37.brightly in the second half. this something you dream of? This

:10:37. > :10:47.is why you play football. This is why you train every day. This is

:10:47. > :10:57.what you aspire to. His goal started it all, 1-0, early

:10:57. > :10:58.

:10:58. > :11:04.in the second half -- first half. Craig Levein was talking about

:11:04. > :11:12.Hearts, in recent times, they have defied analysis. This season, at

:11:12. > :11:18.times you thought they were about to implode, and yet they have come

:11:18. > :11:27.through to this. The big question is, what happens next? That was the

:11:27. > :11:32.point I was trying to make! Paulo Sergio had a tough season, and the

:11:32. > :11:36.biggest difficulty, looking at the team, they might be able to do

:11:36. > :11:41.something special, but he knows that Hearts will be downsizing next

:11:41. > :11:46.year. They are losing a lot of the best players. That could be why

:11:46. > :11:50.there has not been a contract agreement between him and the club.

:11:50. > :11:54.The future for the club looks like it will be to develop Academy

:11:54. > :11:58.players, rather than keeping established players. Perhaps he

:11:58. > :12:03.does not want to go back to the start. I will watch with interest

:12:04. > :12:09.to see what happens. He has got a reputation to think about. He has

:12:09. > :12:15.built it up in a troubled season. But he has got to be thinking, if

:12:15. > :12:20.their best players will be sold off in the summer, it will be difficult

:12:20. > :12:27.for him to recreate this sort of success. Yes, managers want to do

:12:27. > :12:36.the best they can. His stock is very high at the moment. He might

:12:37. > :12:44.think it is a good time to move on. About Hearts, if you win a cup, it

:12:44. > :12:53.is fantastic, but to see every player when inkwell and winning

:12:53. > :12:59.easily, and being able to savour it, that is really unusual. Every

:12:59. > :13:05.manager loves this moment, they remember it, but it flies by. But

:13:05. > :13:10.they had 15, 20, 30 minutes at the end, they thought, this is it

:13:10. > :13:15.cannot I will remember this for the rest of my life. -- this is it, I

:13:15. > :13:22.will remember this for the rest of my life. You would imagine that

:13:22. > :13:26.Paulo Sergio deserves a helluva lot of credit for stopping them

:13:26. > :13:32.becoming completely unstuck. They have gone through some very

:13:32. > :13:37.troubled times. In football, their skins -- those things are never

:13:37. > :13:41.kept private. He has had to deal with that, he has had to answer

:13:41. > :13:46.questions about things that are not related to football. He has handled

:13:46. > :13:55.himself extremely well. He has been very dignified. I am thrilled for

:13:55. > :13:59.him, to see the culmination of all of that hard work. What a lucky

:13:59. > :14:06.manager, to have 40 minutes of the match where he has been able to

:14:06. > :14:13.relax. It almost was 40 minutes. After the third goal and Hibernian

:14:13. > :14:21.went down to 10 men, he could relax. It was a situation which we all

:14:21. > :14:25.dream about. It basically does not happen to any manager. He Bennion,

:14:25. > :14:32.against Kilmarnock, they had a bit of enjoyment, but that seems a

:14:32. > :14:38.helluva long time ago -- Hibernian. A lot of people say Hibernian

:14:38. > :14:47.played poorly, but I thought Hearts were very good. They did not come

:14:47. > :14:51.up with any special surprises. As we look back on the first half

:14:51. > :15:01.goals, one was organised chaos, but the second, Rudi Skacel making the

:15:01. > :15:06.The inability to clear the area. The first goal came from that. We

:15:06. > :15:15.spoke about at half-time. Darren Barr reacted quickest. There was a

:15:15. > :15:25.lack of discipline in the defending. You do not walk out. You see a line,

:15:25. > :15:29.you have to be aware. He had a bad day. I do not want to destroy

:15:29. > :15:38.anybody on a cup final day, but yes. Foodie stature or picking up those

:15:38. > :15:47.positions again. -- Rudi Skacel picking up those positions. This

:15:47. > :15:55.was the goal but Hibernian came back with it. A good ball into the

:15:55. > :16:03.box, and James McPake, their best player. We thought, waiting in it.

:16:03. > :16:07.Will they be back into the game? That was the happy moment, when the

:16:07. > :16:16.cup final came back to life. But when you look at it, did Hearts

:16:16. > :16:20.look like a team who scraped survival -- did Hibernian? Yes.

:16:20. > :16:27.Everybody is aware that they have to have major race surgery, but are

:16:27. > :16:35.not good enough to go forward to where they want to be. It all came

:16:35. > :16:39.down to the penalty kick. Was it a penalty kick? In the end, Pa Saikou

:16:39. > :16:47.Kujabi had such a tough day. He dives into every tackle. Fans love

:16:47. > :16:52.him, because he is wholehearted. Hibernian had to build a platform.

:16:52. > :16:59.The bill believe that they could turn this game around and to

:16:59. > :17:08.concede a penalty was disastrous. Yes. You have got to credit Suso

:17:08. > :17:18.Santana. He goes past two players. That is so silly. Is it outside or

:17:18. > :17:22.

:17:22. > :17:30.inside? That is not a penalty from a. -- for me. Pat Fenlon is angry.

:17:30. > :17:34.That is a disgraceful thing, but it is nowhere near a penalty. That has

:17:34. > :17:42.changed the entire game. Hearts would have won that game, they were

:17:42. > :17:52.by far the best team. It was not a penalty, but they deserved a

:17:52. > :17:52.

:17:52. > :17:58.penalty for it. It was a crazy situation, to bring somebody down.

:17:58. > :18:04.We spoke about this area, around the front post. I do not know how

:18:04. > :18:14.many times the Hearts players got in there, unmarked. Well done to

:18:14. > :18:15.

:18:15. > :18:22.Ryan McGowan. He will love that moment. He has got a cup final goal.

:18:22. > :18:31.Hibernian were wary and, how many would be? -- away rien, how many

:18:31. > :18:38.would it be? Rudi Skacel is a class act. He reminds me of John

:18:38. > :18:47.Robertson. Never from that far out! This uncanny ability to hit the

:18:47. > :18:55.target. It is amazing how many breaks you get. He was always going

:18:55. > :19:03.to be a problem for Hibs. They did not deal with him. They tried to,

:19:03. > :19:11.but Jorge Claros never got near him. Does he want to tackle from there?

:19:11. > :19:15.No. Rudi Skacel was too clever. spoke to John Robertson about Derby

:19:15. > :19:22.domination, because there was a phase when Hearts got to 20 games

:19:22. > :19:27.unbeaten. They now have 11. That matters. You want to stay ahead of

:19:27. > :19:34.your rivals. Psychologically, it affects the team that are the

:19:34. > :19:40.underdogs. In some of these games, you are involved in 22 games in a

:19:40. > :19:44.row, and we did not deserve to get anything from some of them, but

:19:44. > :19:47.psychologically, the field you will get something. When one team feels

:19:47. > :19:53.that, you guarantee that the other team is feeling under pressure.

:19:53. > :19:59.That is what is happening now in this situation. When Hearts got

:19:59. > :20:05.back into the game, the third goal killed the game -- when Hibs got

:20:05. > :20:15.back to the gain line. The next time there is a derby match, the

:20:15. > :20:21.last time they played, 5-1, to You talk about the third goal, is

:20:21. > :20:25.that what made Pat Fenlon furious, he ran on to the pitch. We saw Pat

:20:25. > :20:31.Fenlon being sent to the stand late on, let's hear from the Hibs

:20:32. > :20:38.I'm guessing that must have been one of the most painful Hibs

:20:38. > :20:43.matches you have had to endure. desperately disappointing today. No

:20:43. > :20:48.complaint. How do you explain that? It seemed that the Hibs players for

:20:48. > :20:53.the first 30 minutes, they did not seem to be there on the game.

:20:53. > :21:00.think we can explain his with the position where we have struggled

:21:00. > :21:04.over a length of time now. A lack of desire and effort is what is

:21:04. > :21:08.wrong with the place. You can lose games but if you don't show

:21:08. > :21:15.passion... Particularly in the final, we know what needs to happen.

:21:15. > :21:20.Do you think the scoreline was a fair reflection? Yes, I think so. I

:21:20. > :21:29.am devastated for the supporters to be honest. Try have said it before,

:21:29. > :21:37.I am only here... And we have let them down badly. Have you had a

:21:37. > :21:42.time to look at the penalty? Inside or outside the box, I have not seen.

:21:42. > :21:46.We were second fiddle to most of the game. The sending off... It is

:21:46. > :21:50.just giving the ball away so cheaply on a regular basis. I

:21:50. > :21:59.apologise to the supporters for that. A bad day for us, we must

:21:59. > :22:03.take it on the chin and congratulate Hearts. Were you being

:22:04. > :22:07.sent to the stands, was it a gesture to the fans? No, just

:22:07. > :22:11.kicking the ball out of frustration, a bit of desire and passion about

:22:11. > :22:19.the game. It was such a massive Cup Final. So much build up to it as

:22:19. > :22:24.well. Hibs long wait in the Scottish Cup wilderness goes on,

:22:24. > :22:28.what is your message to the fans now? Whatever I say will not make

:22:28. > :22:32.it any easier for them. We apologise for that display. I am in

:22:32. > :22:39.charge of the team and there must take responsibility, that is not

:22:39. > :22:43.good enough but over the to -- two weakens, we have shown what is

:22:43. > :22:47.wrong and we must change that. There will be a few changes but we

:22:47. > :22:52.knew we needed to change things around. There is an acceptance that

:22:52. > :22:55.is not acceptable from our point of you. Can you enjoy your summer now?

:22:55. > :23:04.Probably not but that is football. Commiserations today. Cheers.

:23:04. > :23:10.Tony -- ROB MACLEAN: It is a difficult time to find out that a

:23:10. > :23:14.positive note for Pat Fenlon, but is it a summer surgery case?

:23:14. > :23:21.Interesting, he said there is a softness about the team. Being sent

:23:21. > :23:29.off for shouting at his own players, is that the first time?! You can

:23:29. > :23:35.see the players out there that have not had enough Hearts. -- enough

:23:35. > :23:40.passion. The players haven't got the pressure but they also don't

:23:40. > :23:44.have the feeling to go level. There are players with a professionalism

:23:44. > :23:50.and the feeling that the Hearts players showed today, and he will

:23:50. > :23:54.know that that is not good enough a display. He has a job, keep them in

:23:54. > :23:57.the Premier League. They are in there now, total change for the

:23:57. > :24:02.start of next season now. Lot of Hibs chance will be upset and

:24:02. > :24:07.disappointed with him, I don't think they should be. Next season

:24:07. > :24:12.judge Pat Fenlon on what he does then. You cannot help but feel

:24:12. > :24:20.sorry for the Hibs fans, can you? Such buzz about the final, it all

:24:20. > :24:23.fell horribly flat early on. Yes, but if you asked every Hibs

:24:23. > :24:28.supporter if you thoroughly thought you had a better team than Hearts?

:24:28. > :24:32.The answer before and would be no, they were basing their hope on

:24:32. > :24:35.being their year but if you went individually through the two teams,

:24:35. > :24:40.Hearts have got on top international players and if they

:24:40. > :24:45.are at their best, they will always be too much for Hibs. Hibs' big

:24:45. > :24:50.chance was Hearts underperforming. That did not happen. Hearts reached

:24:50. > :24:55.90% of what they can do. Every player did what they could do. As

:24:55. > :25:00.Hearts were good, Hibs were really sub-standard. They really were. And

:25:00. > :25:07.I feel for Pat Fenlon who is very honest there. He has patched a team

:25:07. > :25:09.together and if I was to be honest, play in a Cup Final with that

:25:09. > :25:13.cripple players was really difficult. He has only managed to

:25:13. > :25:19.put that in together between the last transfer window and the end of

:25:19. > :25:26.season. Papering over the cracks? s. That is what he was saying. He

:25:26. > :25:29.was saying he needs to change it. He started with a system that was

:25:29. > :25:34.very tight in the midfield area. That all my shows you that he does

:25:34. > :25:38.not think he will have belief in it and he will wait for a break. It

:25:38. > :25:43.never happened and too much intelligence and the other team.

:25:43. > :25:47.All joy for Hearts tonight, they always celebrate but that durable

:25:47. > :25:53.quickly turn to consternation about what will happen to their squad.

:25:53. > :26:00.Ian Black off already, other players going as well. Rudi Skacel

:26:00. > :26:06.who has talismanic properties for then, 17 goals and ended with a

:26:06. > :26:15.Scottish Cup win. He is so important to Hearts, will he be

:26:15. > :26:23.allowed to go? They are losing some top players and every club must cut

:26:23. > :26:26.its cloth accordingly. He has spent a lot of money and finally come to

:26:26. > :26:30.the realisation that you cannot keep throwing money at it. The club

:26:30. > :26:37.from now on will have to run itself and balance the books and to do

:26:37. > :26:43.that they must get the wage bill down and that unfortunately means

:26:43. > :26:46.losing good players. Ian Black, we spoke about. My opinion on him has

:26:46. > :26:54.changed to what it was previously because of the way he has played.

:26:54. > :26:59.Today was a typical example, Rudi Skacel is a couple of goals but Ian

:26:59. > :27:09.Black was excellent. Craig Beattie? Yes, losing Craig Beattie. They

:27:09. > :27:13.

:27:13. > :27:18.would not be here if it was not for Probably Hearts fans know that as

:27:18. > :27:21.well but everybody in football is in that position. Making cuts. It

:27:21. > :27:27.is not the end of the world. A good chance that had can go on and bring

:27:27. > :27:30.a few young lads through and it is great to have a Driver back. I
