today. You can see why Hampden Park is the choice. It is the first | :00:05. | :00:10. | |
Scottish Cup Final for Hibs 62001. On that occasion they lost to | :00:10. | :00:18. | |
Celtic. -- since 2001. Eight times they have contested finals since | :00:18. | :00:28. | |
:00:28. | :00:49. | ||
their last won it. A lot of jibes penalty shoot-out victory. Rudi | :00:49. | :00:54. | |
Skacel scored in that final. He scored three Scottish Cup goals | :00:54. | :01:04. | |
:01:04. | :01:04. | ||
already this season. Garry O'Connor, in his second spell at Hibs. He | :01:04. | :01:12. | |
opened the scoring early on against Aberdeen in the semi-final. Craig | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
Thomson takes charge of his third Edinburgh derby of the season. He | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
is off to the European Chaabi jette in Holland and the Ukraine in a | :01:20. | :01:26. | |
couple of weeks. -- European Championships. Billy Dodds, just | :01:26. | :01:32. | |
before kick-off, what an ASDA? noise is incredible. The pressure | :01:32. | :01:42. | |
:01:42. | :01:43. | ||
is so intense on both of these teams. Absolutely vital to win it. | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
That is why the atmosphere is the way it is. Craig Thomson gets the | :01:48. | :01:58. | |
:01:58. | :01:58. | ||
Scottish Cup Final on the way. There is a silver lining to go with | :01:59. | :02:07. | |
the bragging rights in this match. To the Victor go the capital's | :02:07. | :02:17. | |
boils. Himself one two Scott is Cup finals. Hearts have won seven. -- | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
Scottish Cup finals. We predicted AKG affair. Do you still go along | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
that line? That depends on the first half-an-hour. If there is not | :02:27. | :02:37. | |
:02:37. | :02:38. | ||
a goal scored Butt macro it will get tactical. I think at tactical, | :02:38. | :02:44. | |
nervous affair to start with. A goal would blow of his game right | :02:44. | :02:54. | |
:02:54. | :03:02. | ||
open. -- this game. Pat Fenlon early state of the game. | :03:03. | :03:11. | |
Particularly a game of this magnitude. Stevenson missed the | :03:11. | :03:21. | |
:03:21. | :04:00. | ||
semi-final. He was suspended. The customer. A couple of nervy looking | :04:00. | :04:07. | |
touches in the opening minutes. Pat Fenlon replaced Colin Calderwood as | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
Hibs boss and managed to steer them Kier of relegation in the SPL, | :04:11. | :04:18. | |
eventually. -- steer them clear. A big win for them against | :04:18. | :04:28. | |
:04:28. | :04:50. | ||
see that ball, go to his feet. -- come to his feet. Both players have | :04:50. | :04:58. | |
Bishop composure. -- to show composure. Claros is not going to | :04:58. | :05:07. | |
get that much time on the ball today. That is a tactic Hibs will | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
use all afternoon, to try to get Leigh Griffiths in behind the | :05:11. | :05:17. | |
Hearts defence. One thing the Hibs forward line will do is try to drag | :05:17. | :05:23. | |
the centre halves out to the wide areas. Yes. Hibs will not stay | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
central. Sometimes they will. Most of the time they move down the | :05:27. | :05:37. | |
:05:37. | :05:37. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :05:37. | :06:20. | |
just watched Claros, showing good protection. When they drop in | :06:20. | :06:25. | |
between defensive midfield, some of the Hibs midfield certainly need to | :06:26. | :06:35. | |
:06:36. | :06:36. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :06:36. | :07:23. | |
have won 192 of them, Hibs over 176 but this is the derby. Forget all | :07:23. | :07:33. | |
:07:33. | :07:34. | ||
the others. -- Hibs won 76. Hearts of the teams coming into this game | :07:34. | :07:39. | |
inform in this fixture. They haven't lost any of the last 10 end | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
of the Derby's, they won all three of the season's meetings and | :07:43. | :07:53. | |

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :07:53. | :08:36. | |
finished 19 points above Hibs in Better possession that time for | :08:36. | :08:44. | |
Hibernian. It doesn't surprise me after seven minutes gone that it is | :08:44. | :08:49. | |
cagey, tense and nervous. People taking too many touches, that will | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
be the way it is an to that settles down. Get a couple of touches, | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
don't take too long on the ball. We saw what happened on the right side | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
with Claros. The team that will when will be the team that shows | :09:02. | :09:12. | |
:09:12. | :09:17. | ||
more composure. -- that will win Today. -- Glasgow is Edinburgh for | :09:17. | :09:27. | |
:09:27. | :09:27. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :09:27. | :10:18. | |
Side here. Not much in it at all. It is a chance for Hearts to bring | :10:18. | :10:28. | |
:10:28. | :10:30. | ||
set pieces. Another chance to demonstrate that. Danny Grainger | :10:30. | :10:40. | |
:10:40. | :10:48. | ||
involved. Craig Thomson wants a word with them as well. I think he | :10:48. | :10:54. | |
could win the ball, if he wants to win that header, he can play in | :10:54. | :11:00. | |
this is the ball and came off second best in that occasion, | :11:00. | :11:07. | |
Griffiths. Seems to be telling someone of, Craig Thomson. Just | :11:07. | :11:17. | |
:11:17. | :11:21. | ||
putting Leigh Griffiths know he is think of that there was no card for | :11:21. | :11:31. | |
:11:31. | :11:31. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :11:31. | :12:26. | |
quality about are not just his that right hand side of the pitch, | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
it gives it to Kujabi. Slightly offside, a good decision by the | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
linesman over there but if he carries on his run, he is moving | :12:33. | :12:43. | |
:12:43. | :13:02. | ||
into that Channel. A good ball back Still in play. It is Rudi Skacel's | :13:02. | :13:12. | |
:13:12. | :13:18. | ||
Claros, they are getting a bit lucky when the ball comes in. Rudi | :13:18. | :13:28. | |
:13:28. | :13:34. | ||
Skacel gets himself into a good mystery as well. On his way out at | :13:34. | :13:40. | |
Tynecastle like Ian Black. Such an important player for the Jambos. 16 | :13:40. | :13:47. | |
goals this season. 46 goals in 96 appearances over two spells for | :13:47. | :13:57. | |
Rudi Skacel. Does not always play as a striker. Today it in behind | :13:57. | :14:07. | |
:14:07. | :14:22. | ||
said, not surprising. As far as I am concerned. They need to show | :14:22. | :14:32. | |
:14:32. | :15:10. | ||
sides of Hibs. First corner of the match, lot of players waiting for | :15:10. | :15:19. | |
this Danny Grainger corner. Still in the mixer... He will get a | :15:19. | :15:29. | |
:15:29. | :15:35. | ||
second bite and drops the ball... lips, they lead the Scottish Cup | :15:35. | :15:44. | |
final! Not a classic goal, is it? But it does not matter, not a jot. | :15:44. | :15:50. | |
The Hearts players are good in the air but Ryan McGowan eventually | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
turned round, Kujabi is too deep, he has got to clear it but he | :15:54. | :16:04. | |
doesn't. He wolds at home. What a start for Hearts. -- or wallops it | :16:04. | :16:14. | |
:16:14. | :16:16. | ||
home. His first goal of the season, stabbing past the man who captained | :16:16. | :16:23. | |
Falkirk, he has one hand on a winner's medal now. A possible | :16:23. | :16:31. | |
historical goal from Darren Barr. Just 14 minutes in. What a moment | :16:31. | :16:38. | |
for him. He was a forgotten man of Tynecastle. Most of the season, | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
people wondered if Darren Barr was still at the club. He scored and | :16:42. | :16:51. | |
the Cup final. What a comeback for the lad. Not just any Cup final, | :16:51. | :17:01. | |
:17:01. | :17:24. | ||
score first today. Hearts have got Another opportunity for Hibs to put | :17:24. | :17:34. | |
:17:34. | :17:43. | ||
a good ball in to a good area, put towards the back post and it | :17:43. | :17:49. | |
perhaps got a slight miss touch because he Bernier have a corner. | :17:49. | :17:59. | |
:17:59. | :18:04. | ||
Such an important touch from Hibs' first of the Cup final. | :18:04. | :18:09. | |
Hearts scored after their first and only, so far. What can Hibs do | :18:09. | :18:19. | |
:18:19. | :18:51. | ||
is only one outcome. The referee left with their option. Kujabi have | :18:51. | :19:01. | |
:19:01. | :19:08. | ||
to be careful. Not the best of Gambian, Pa Kujabi. Pat Fenlon | :19:08. | :19:18. | |
:19:18. | :19:20. | ||
the clouds above as Danny Grainger prepares to take this free kick for | :19:20. | :19:26. | |
Hearts. The noise is coming from the left-hand side, the Hearts | :19:26. | :19:36. | |
:19:36. | :19:44. | ||
Drops to Webster. Mark Brown holds on eventually be. No doubt it is | :19:44. | :19:49. | |
beneficial to Hearts, it already has been. Again causing problems | :19:49. | :19:55. | |
for Hearts, a decent ball in to a good area. He just still well in | :19:55. | :20:05. | |
:20:05. | :20:45. | ||
this Cup competition. -- Hibs still trying to get some confidence, | :20:45. | :20:55. | |
:20:55. | :20:57. | ||
trying to string some passes together. Too much on that for a | :20:57. | :21:07. | |
:21:07. | :21:11. | ||
car. -- for O'Connor. Could Chaabi is called the Gambian of Roberto | :21:11. | :21:21. | |
:21:21. | :21:26. | ||
Carlos. -- Kajaki. Look at him. It is a moment in time for him. He | :21:26. | :21:34. | |
stands there. Picks nobody up. Darren Barr is played onside and | :21:34. | :21:44. | |
:21:44. | :22:12. | ||
Skacel was waiting. Grainger was just jumping the challenge. Hearts | :22:12. | :22:22. | |
getting some joy down the wide areas. Driver, Skacel into changing. | :22:22. | :22:26. | |
Certainly getting down at the wide areas. I wonder if at some point | :22:26. | :22:34. | |
Hibs may think about flattening out that midfield four. Stevenson wins | :22:34. | :22:44. | |
:22:44. | :22:46. | ||
the free kick. Skacel's challenge. Claros appealing for a card. He did | :22:46. | :22:56. | |
:22:56. | :23:24. | ||
little bit. Claros wanted further O'Connor. He looked at the referee | :23:24. | :23:31. | |
more in hope than expectation. McCague did ever so well. -- mack | :23:31. | :23:41. | |
:23:41. | :24:21. | ||
pace. It was a fantastic header. No in that at all. Never a penalty. | :24:21. | :24:31. | |
:24:31. | :24:48. | ||
Cup for an the time. That would take them two-thirds in the all- | :24:48. | :24:58. | |
:24:58. | :25:13. | ||
Falkirk. He was their captain before the left. -- before he left. | :25:13. | :25:23. | |
:25:23. | :25:24. | ||
He has a runners-up medal in a Scottish Cup Final. Years as the | :25:24. | :25:28. | |
centre half, and Paulo Sergio just looked at him and thought, you can | :25:28. | :25:38. | |
:25:38. | :25:40. | ||
be a central midfielder. You can see just how much he enjoyed that. | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
You'll never see Paulo Sergio's emotions really. He will be | :25:44. | :25:54. | |
:25:54. | :26:33. | ||
absolutely delighted with how offside. Really difficult for the | :26:33. | :26:43. | |
:26:43. | :27:01. | ||
linesman. A foul by McPake. He in the way to winning the Scottish | :27:01. | :27:08. | |
Cup. -- Hearts. They have given themselves a chance to do it for a | :27:08. | :27:18. | |
:27:18. | :27:18. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :27:18. | :28:25. | |
doubled their lead. They are well on their way to glory. They can | :28:25. | :28:33. | |
almost touch the Scottish Cup. Rudi Skacel again. You said Hibs were | :28:33. | :28:43. | |
toiling. Black faded into Skacel. I am sure it took Alnwick off James | :28:43. | :28:51. | |
McPake. That is the difference. Hearts in dreamland. I long road | :28:51. | :29:01. | |
:29:01. | :29:02. | ||
back for Hibs. Seldom has anybody else over the last few years had | :29:02. | :29:08. | |
such an impact as Rudi Skacel has. The hero of the Hearts supporters | :29:09. | :29:17. | |
has put them two head against their most bitter rivals. It was a well- | :29:17. | :29:26. | |
worked goal albeit with a deflection. Hibs are being done | :29:26. | :29:34. | |
down the outside today. Hearts have plenty of time on the ball. That is | :29:34. | :29:44. | |
:29:44. | :29:48. | ||
why Black fed into Skacel and he did the rest. It is looking like a | :29:48. | :29:54. | |
party down Gorgie way. He doesn't need the mother of all comebacks in | :29:54. | :29:58. | |
the Mother of All of Derby's. Skacel's 17 of the season. He | :29:58. | :30:08. | |
:30:08. | :30:14. | ||
scored in the Cup final in 2006. This is a different kettle of fish. | :30:14. | :30:24. | |
:30:24. | :30:28. | ||
Hearts looking to pile on the pain for Hibernian. That was frustration. | :30:28. | :30:38. | |
They need to stop Hearts getting forward. Hibs two behind. They need | :30:38. | :30:48. | |
:30:48. | :31:06. | ||
a goal, but they cannot afford to Hibs deal with it eventually. The | :31:06. | :31:16. | |
:31:16. | :31:34. | ||
ball. Grainger mops up. Great cover. Griffiths and O'Connor did well. It | :31:34. | :31:44. | |
Grainger did not get across, he has had a chance. -- he has had a | :31:44. | :31:54. | |
:31:54. | :32:00. | ||
chance. Hibs need inspiration from somewhere. Kujabi has a second bite | :32:00. | :32:10. | |
:32:10. | :32:34. | ||
at it. Hearts thought that was that was a chance. A decent ball in | :32:34. | :32:41. | |
the box. Slightly behind O'Connor. But make sure you hit the target. | :32:41. | :32:49. | |
He does not do it. What a chance. The next goal is so crucial. Hearts | :32:49. | :32:57. | |
get it, it is game over. It is looking that way anywhere. -- | :32:57. | :33:07. | |
:33:07. | :33:13. | ||
Griffiths on the edge of the Hearts pair of the area. It would have | :33:13. | :33:21. | |
been a lovely ball about 10 seconds earlier. He just delayed. | :33:21. | :33:31. | |
Fenlon, his entire career was spent in his homeland, the goal there. | :33:31. | :33:41. | |
:33:41. | :33:41. | ||
Played 4 Bohemians and Shell Boro. -- Shell barn. Pat Fenlon may be | :33:41. | :33:51. | |
:33:51. | :33:52. | ||
asked to make a change. Hearts going down the wide areas. | :33:52. | :34:02. | |
:34:02. | :34:24. | ||
in the box. It is all Hearts at the moment. On his game, Driver is a | :34:24. | :34:34. | |
:34:34. | :34:36. | ||
top player. Still reminds his team- mates that he was worth �3 million | :34:36. | :34:46. | |
:34:46. | :35:01. | ||
the Craig Beattie not being able to play today. They may not need him | :35:01. | :35:09. | |
away things are going. -- the way things are going. Hibs fans | :35:09. | :35:13. | |
desperate for their team to get something. They cannot afford to | :35:13. | :35:23. | |
:35:23. | :35:29. | ||
lose the next goal. I do not think Hibs have turned up yet. Get the | :35:29. | :35:34. | |
next goal and the game will change. That is what has to happen. If you | :35:34. | :35:38. | |
get to half-time, that is exactly what Pat Fenlon will say to them. | :35:38. | :35:46. | |
Hibs have not turned up. They have to get the ball to O'Connor. Maybe | :35:46. | :35:51. | |
change the personnel, changed the shape. Something has to happen. The | :35:51. | :36:01. | |
:36:01. | :36:25. | ||
when teams have played Hibs. This through, they will have to see it | :36:25. | :36:34. | |
again. Doherty left for dead by Driver. This in turn by Hanlon. | :36:34. | :36:37. | |
Great goal line clearance from James McPake. Doing what he does | :36:37. | :36:47. | |
:36:47. | :36:48. | ||
best. Hearts again. Far and away the more dangerous. They have got | :36:48. | :36:58. | |
:36:58. | :37:10. | ||
to go Driver matched or keep him the way things are going, they | :37:11. | :37:16. | |
would love to get a goal back. Tried to regroup, as Billy was | :37:16. | :37:26. | |
:37:26. | :37:34. | ||
Doyle as well, they still have attacking options. But it is | :37:34. | :37:38. | |
creation they need because we know what damage Griffiths and O'Connor | :37:38. | :37:48. | |
:37:48. | :37:50. | ||
can do. Sometimes you can't do anything, but at least they have | :37:50. | :37:53. | |
stuck Tom Soares into the right hand side now, tried to match | :37:53. | :38:03. | |
:38:03. | :38:05. | ||
Driver up early. James McPake, the Hibs captain, reported intervention, | :38:05. | :38:15. | |
:38:15. | :38:25. | ||
this one. He doesn't see it too North Stand, thought he had taken | :38:26. | :38:35. | |
:38:36. | :39:00. | ||
deep. Darren Barr is enjoying himself out there. All the hard | :39:00. | :39:05. | |
players are, they have got the extra energy. -- all the Hearts | :39:05. | :39:14. | |
players are. Pat Fenlon took Hibs the way to Dublin last week to try | :39:14. | :39:20. | |
to get away from what was a bit of a media circus ahead of this game, | :39:20. | :39:28. | |
understandably so. Since 1896 in the Scottish Cup Final, the last | :39:28. | :39:38. | |
:39:38. | :39:51. | ||
time they met but he has flown into the Queen Of The South to in that | :39:51. | :39:57. | |
Billy Dodds was mentioning earlier. In the final defeat to ranges back | :39:57. | :40:04. | |
in 2008. Four years ago now, I can't believe that. The first goal | :40:04. | :40:12. | |
I think Stevie toss got the first goal. Hibs need that and get | :40:12. | :40:17. | |
inspiration. I am sure they will get that if they score but if they | :40:17. | :40:27. | |
:40:27. | :40:56. | ||
lose a goal, I am sorry, all over. On that occasion, it was Darren | :40:56. | :41:06. | |
:41:06. | :41:11. | ||
Barr finding Suso, they have got make a change, Ivan Sproule will | :41:12. | :41:18. | |
come on for them as Lewis Stevenson plays it into Griffiths. They need | :41:18. | :41:28. | |
:41:28. | :41:45. | ||
a bit of magic, he tried to put it just now. Tom Soares will take the | :41:45. | :41:55. | |
:41:55. | :42:10. | ||
something! It is the skipper who get it, James McPake breathed new | :42:10. | :42:17. | |
life into the Scottish Cup Final. The Hibees are back in it! Well and | :42:17. | :42:22. | |
truly game on. I said the next goal is crucial, well Hibs getting that | :42:22. | :42:26. | |
goal out from the corner. Eventually James McPake takes a | :42:26. | :42:32. | |
touch, comes to Claros, they work it back out to Tom Soares and they | :42:32. | :42:38. | |
what a ball in the dangerous area and Tom Soares produces it. McPake | :42:38. | :42:44. | |
get a tap-in. This Cup Final is well and truly blown wide open. It | :42:44. | :42:54. | |
has all been about the James McPake defence, he scores his first Hibs | :42:54. | :42:57. | |
goal in the Cup Final. Hibs have something to grab on to as Ivan | :42:57. | :43:07. | |
:43:07. | :43:39. | ||
Sproule replaces Jorge Claros. Game Where do we go from here? Griffiths | :43:39. | :43:49. | |
:43:49. | :43:57. | ||
is out left, I think Ivan Sproule certainly have got plenty to | :43:57. | :44:07. | |
:44:07. | :44:08. | ||
support. A good change in my book, from Pat Fenlon. It is a Hibs free | :44:08. | :44:15. | |
kick. Andy Webster back in the Scotland squad, the Scotland boss | :44:15. | :44:22. | |
in the studio at half-time, they will be going to Florida for the | :44:22. | :44:26. | |
friendly against the US. It is a Hibernian free kick and although a | :44:26. | :44:29. | |
sudden they are looking for an equaliser just before half-time. | :44:29. | :44:36. | |
They might need the interval to regroup, we thought earlier. | :44:36. | :44:42. | |
can see how much a little changed shape... A goal has just changed | :44:42. | :44:52. | |
:44:52. | :45:20. | ||
this goal and turned it on its head. back. Good play from Stephenson, | :45:20. | :45:30. | |
:45:30. | :45:48. | ||
They need to keep their heads the innocent one. I don't think | :45:48. | :45:52. | |
that is intentional from Ian Black. Perhaps a free kick, but not | :45:52. | :46:00. | |
intentional. Craig Thomson has let it go. That incident, the potential | :46:00. | :46:06. | |
to his right up it into the last minute of the first half, it has | :46:06. | :46:13. | |
flown by. We said a goal early would blow this game wide open and | :46:13. | :46:23. | |
:46:23. | :46:56. | ||
This William Hill Scottish Cup into that minute of stoppage time. | :46:56. | :47:04. | |
A trickier team talk now, Paulo Sergio. Everything we were talking | :47:04. | :47:09. | |
about a moment ago, Ivan Sproule, getting to Driver, Hearts are | :47:09. | :47:16. | |
pushed back, James McPake gets fouled and Hibs get the ball again. | :47:16. | :47:23. | |
They have got momentum now, no doubt. Can Hibs find what would be | :47:23. | :47:33. | |
:47:33. | :47:53. | ||
a sensational level there before the ball... Was a WHISTLE BLOWS For | :47:53. | :48:01. | |
what they first half we have had. The Skacel made it two. A fantastic | :48:01. | :48:08. | |
first half. This was the Open -- opener from Darren Barr to give | :48:08. | :48:12. | |
Hearts the lead. They looked comfortable at that stage. The | :48:12. | :48:15. | |
former Falkirk skipper opening the scoring, it looked even more | :48:15. | :48:20. | |
comfortable, Rudi Skacel's deflected goal off James McPake | :48:20. | :48:30. | |
:48:30. | :48:31. | ||
made it 2-0. The Czech hero does what he does best but then then | :48:31. | :48:34. | |
knocking it past Jamie MacDonald. That is what has made this | :48:34. | :48:40. | |
interesting. James McPake appalling Hibernian back into it. It was the | :48:40. | :48:44. | |
first half that flew by, the second half is not to be missed. Half-time | :48:44. | :48:50. | |
at the National Stadium is a Bennion 1, Heart of Midlothian, two. | :48:50. | :48:58. | |
-- Hibernian 1. ROB MACLEAN: It is 2-1, Hearts here | :48:58. | :49:07. | |
This Hibs fans right in front of us in the studio were desolate and | :49:07. | :49:10. | |
disconsolate and probably contemplating heading homewards but | :49:10. | :49:14. | |
that's James McPake goal has changed the complexion. | :49:14. | :49:17. | |
certainly has and that is what makes football a wonderful game. | :49:17. | :49:21. | |
Just when you think trouble as Hibs did, up pops James McPake and | :49:22. | :49:25. | |
brings them right back into the game. It will be a different half- | :49:25. | :49:29. | |
time in both dressing rooms. Hearts going in winning 2-0 would have | :49:29. | :49:33. | |
been a situation where the manager just needs to praise them for what | :49:33. | :49:37. | |
they have done. After that, keep them on their toes and get an early | :49:37. | :49:44. | |
goal in the second half. Now the momentum has shifted a bit. Pat | :49:44. | :49:47. | |
Fenlon's team talk will be a lot easier than it would have been. | :49:47. | :49:51. | |
much doubt about who was the better team? By a long way, Hearts a | :49:51. | :49:55. | |
better team in almost every single department. The tactical battle, | :49:55. | :50:00. | |
they have won that quite easily. 2- 0, I was like the rest of the Hibs | :50:00. | :50:05. | |
fans out there. I could not see any way out, lack of belief. Craig and | :50:05. | :50:11. | |
I were both saying that they were all over the place. But a couple of | :50:11. | :50:14. | |
changes near the end, a substitution made a bit of a | :50:14. | :50:20. | |
difference but the goal, that is it. In the end, there is a bit more | :50:20. | :50:24. | |
belief in the Hibs team. He can see it, they are not hiding. From what | :50:24. | :50:30. | |
was a hopeless situation, they have set alight to the Hibs fans and | :50:30. | :50:35. | |
players. Pat and then it will be pleased that his team is back in, | :50:35. | :50:37. | |
are concerned will they be about that they are getting ravaged in | :50:37. | :50:43. | |
the wide areas? His two best players are his strikers so after | :50:43. | :50:48. | |
that, what he has done his play A narrow midfield. Almost like a | :50:48. | :50:54. | |
Diamond. It has not worked. Immediately they are looking for a | :50:54. | :50:57. | |
safe pass and that saved pass which Hearts have every time his wide. | :50:57. | :51:04. | |
They have not managed to get it. They tried to force things, p very | :51:04. | :51:08. | |
disjointed but Hearts, Ian Black in particular, he is bring the ball | :51:08. | :51:12. | |
all over the pitch, changing the point of attack and getting Driver | :51:12. | :51:19. | |
and Suso on the ball. I think they had been out-thought in the first | :51:19. | :51:29. | |
:51:29. | :51:32. | ||
half. Ivan Sproule coming on gives You did suggest that organised | :51:32. | :51:35. | |
chaos at set pieces from Hearts may chaos at set pieces from Hearts may | :51:35. | :51:45. | |
:51:45. | :51:46. | ||
wreak havoc and it certainly did? They have a lot of power in the air. | :51:46. | :51:49. | |
They will chase everything. There is a great willingness within their | :51:49. | :51:59. | |
group. It is good play. It is not a fluke. He played for it. You cannot | :51:59. | :52:07. | |
lose two header is in your own box. You asking for trouble. You have | :52:07. | :52:17. | |
:52:17. | :52:21. | ||
got to defend better than this. You are asking for trouble. You cannot | :52:21. | :52:24. | |
get an organised structure in defence when the player as are | :52:24. | :52:33. | |
running everywhere. Go And When You're ball. They did not win it. - | :52:33. | :52:43. | |
:52:43. | :52:47. | ||
The ball control absolutely anywhere. Kujabi should have been | :52:47. | :52:55. | |
out. Yes, he was too deep. He was ball-watching. He got caught. Basic | :52:55. | :53:03. | |
defending, When You're header. Height and distance. Make sure you | :53:03. | :53:07. | |
get the header out of the danger area. It has been a problem for | :53:07. | :53:17. | |
:53:17. | :53:19. | ||
Hibs. Hibs have not been taken by surprise. They cannot claim that. | :53:19. | :53:24. | |
We saw the organised chaos for the first goal. Rudi Skacel's ability | :53:24. | :53:29. | |
to find pockets of space. Give him this sort of room and he is liable | :53:29. | :53:35. | |
to do this sort of damage. This is the first reasonable passing | :53:35. | :53:45. | |
:53:45. | :53:57. | ||
between the lines. He is unmarked. Great played by Black. You cannot | :53:57. | :54:05. | |
leave Skacel in the box. He is so accurate with shooting. Good play | :54:05. | :54:11. | |
by Ian Black. This is poor defending. Do not give cat -- | :54:11. | :54:21. | |
:54:21. | :54:22. | ||
Skacel space. That is far too much space. They want the Claros to kill | :54:23. | :54:28. | |
the space. That must have been a big part of the pre-match | :54:28. | :54:33. | |
discussion for Hibs, on top of what they were going to give themselves. | :54:33. | :54:37. | |
What is the danger in the Hearts team? Rudi Skacel. They would have | :54:37. | :54:42. | |
spoken about their ability in set pieces. And Skacel's ability to | :54:42. | :54:48. | |
pick up good position to in front of that defence. They get the two | :54:48. | :54:58. | |
:54:58. | :54:59. | ||
goals from exactly the two things I think Hibs are lucky to be back | :54:59. | :55:03. | |
in the game at this point. Hearts have been the better side. | :55:03. | :55:09. | |
Deservedly in front. That lifeline could be crucial for Hibs. They may | :55:09. | :55:12. | |
be lucky to be back in the game but be lucky to be back in the game but | :55:12. | :55:22. | |
it does change the complexion? have not been getting wide. Until | :55:22. | :55:32. | |
:55:32. | :55:32. | ||
now. They get the ball wide here. Hearts get plenty of players behind | :55:32. | :55:38. | |
the ball. But they are not that good at defending from Balls in | :55:38. | :55:43. | |
this area. Having said that, it is the hardest area to defend. What | :55:43. | :55:51. | |
happens here, Zaliukas left that area. He cannot get out to the ball | :55:51. | :55:57. | |
to stop the cross. There is no point. He has made the decision to | :55:57. | :56:03. | |
go. He could never get there. It encourages the past. It is poor | :56:03. | :56:11. | |
defending. They had plenty of defenders. They will get the | :56:11. | :56:17. | |
numbers back there. But you get close enough to make sure they do | :56:17. | :56:23. | |
not do anything. They were still plenty of guys in there. | :56:23. | :56:30. | |
Zaliukas left that position but always must be filled, -- he left | :56:30. | :56:35. | |
the position that always must be filled. It leaves a hole. There is | :56:35. | :56:40. | |
not time to react. It was a fantastic ball into the box. You | :56:40. | :56:44. | |
must credit James might pay quick following the ball. It was a dummy | :56:44. | :56:54. | |
:56:54. | :56:55. | ||
by O'Connor. -- James McPake. It changes the game and makes the | :56:55. | :56:58. | |
second have more exciting to stop these guys are now making the noise | :56:59. | :57:06. | |
behind us. Every time Hearts get a set piece, there is chaos? I do | :57:06. | :57:14. | |
like what they do. They run in all sorts of different directions. How | :57:14. | :57:24. | |
:57:24. | :57:25. | ||
do you Mark that? There are so many bodies. If you are fortunate that | :57:25. | :57:33. | |
it happens to drop there, you get a shot. Driver has been struggling to | :57:33. | :57:38. | |
return from his injuries. We are starting to see him getting back to | :57:38. | :57:42. | |
his best. This was good old- fashioned wing play. They should | :57:42. | :57:49. | |
have scored there. Great defending from James McPake. He is having | :57:49. | :57:57. | |
some effect on the game. Forget that, he is having some effect on | :57:57. | :58:03. | |
Hibs's season. Kujabi is having a difficult afternoon in the left- | :58:03. | :58:10. | |
back area. Rapaic scored the goal and the saved HIPS twice already. - | :58:10. | :58:16. | |
- McPake. He may have to do more. What Hibs do have is a goal threat. | :58:16. | :58:21. | |
They need to provide ammunition for och, and Griffiths. This is one you | :58:21. | :58:26. | |
would expect Garry O'Connor to put away, isn't it? I think this was a | :58:26. | :58:31. | |
harder chance. It bounced just before them. It is really difficult | :58:31. | :58:41. | |
:58:41. | :58:43. | ||
on the spin to keep the ball down. He has courted halfway up his shame. | :58:43. | :58:52. | |
-- he has kicked it have where position. Let's be fair, Hearts | :58:52. | :59:00. | |
have been a lot better. Hearts have been a lot more dangerous. The vast | :59:00. | :59:04. | |
majority of the play, the vast majority of the chances, it has | :59:04. | :59:08. | |
been happening down there in front of us. Will Hearts had the belief | :59:08. | :59:17. | |
to think, hang on a minute, we had that game won? 2-0 is always a skip | :59:17. | :59:23. | |
-- dangerous score. There is nothing to lose. I do not think | :59:23. | :59:27. | |
Hibs can be any worse than they have been in the first half. Hearts | :59:27. | :59:32. | |
played quite well in the first half. The momentum shift towards Hibs. | :59:32. | :59:37. | |
They have not played particularly well. They have now got a little | :59:37. | :59:45. | |
bit of width and pace. Well done to Pat Fenlon. It did not go well at | :59:45. | :59:50. | |
the start. He lost the tactical battle. But if he had to change it, | :59:50. | :59:53. | |
he tasted before half-time. lucky was Ian Black not to see a | :59:53. | :00:03. | |
card for this? Yes. If we slow it down, have a look at it again. He | :00:03. | :00:07. | |
has led with his elbow. Because it was early in the game, he has got | :00:07. | :00:15. | |
away with it. In a 90% of games other than the Scottish Cup Final, | :00:15. | :00:23. | |
that is yellow. The other 10% is a red. I think the referee wants to | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
keep the game from boiling over. Ian has been committed in going for | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
the ball. There is nothing wrong with that. But when you lead with | :00:32. | :00:38. | |
you Al ball, you asking for trouble. There are a couple of times he has | :00:38. | :00:44. | |
been wound up by players. Do you expect Hibs to get back into this | :00:44. | :00:50. | |
game? Have they got the belief? I do not think they can have anybody | :00:50. | :01:00. | |
sitting deep as a midfielder, which means more room for Skacel. I do | :01:00. | :01:04. | |
not know what Hibs can do to stop the danger from be crosses, from | :01:04. | :01:11. | |
the long throws, from the corner kicks. I still think Hearts are so | :01:11. | :01:18. | |
far Fredericks. We have talked plenty. Let us some up the story of | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
the first path of this Scottish Cup Final. Drama from the opening | :01:22. | :01:28. | |
moments. Darren Barr with his first goal fur Hearts. Garry O'Connor | :01:29. | :01:34. | |
missed that chance. Almost inevitably Rudi Skacel with his | :01:34. | :01:40. | |
17th goal of the season made it 2. And James McPake has breathed life | :01:40. | :01:48. | |
back into Hibs just before half- time. Back to Liam McLeod and Billy | :01:48. | :01:58. | |
:01:58. | :02:03. | ||
to the first. It is a lot Philip up do. No changes in the Hibernian | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
side at half-time. Ivan Sproule came on further Claros before half- | :02:08. | :02:16. | |
time. No changes for Hearts either. Making their way back onto the Park. | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
Those Hibs fans will be in better spirits than there were five | :02:20. | :02:27. | |
minutes before half-time. James McPake scoop one of the line. And | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
at the other end he brought Hibernian back into the Scottish | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
Cup Final. Andy Webster, lifted the Cup a couple of years ago when he | :02:37. | :02:47. | |
:02:47. | :02:50. | ||
was with Dundee United, he skippered them,... Hibs have won | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
nine of the 30 in Scottish Cup meetings and have lost the last | :02:55. | :03:04. | |
three against Hearts. It will be them who kick-off the second half. | :03:04. | :03:10. | |
They need a ticket on from that shock in the arm they got at the | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
end of the opening 45 minutes. -- shot in the arm. Rudi Skacel making | :03:15. | :03:21. | |
his way on to the Park. Such a good atmosphere here today. A once-in-a- | :03:21. | :03:28. | |
lifetime opportunity for everybody to see Hibernian take on Hearts. | :03:28. | :03:38. | |
:03:38. | :03:45. | ||
Once in a century, once in many bottom of your screen. No further | :03:45. | :03:55. | |
:03:55. | :04:14. | ||
Hearts have a penalty kick right at the start of the second half. | :04:14. | :04:24. | |
:04:24. | :04:30. | ||
was a body blow. A red card! Red fur Kujabi. Hibs, having managed to | :04:30. | :04:37. | |
resurrect their hopes before half- time, the second yellow card for a | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
Pa Saikou Kujabi. Hearts have a chance of a third. Double jeopardy | :04:41. | :04:48. | |
for Hibernian. I think it is a harsh sending off of. I do not | :04:48. | :04:54. | |
think it is intentional. It is a certain penalty. Not appear | :04:54. | :05:01. | |
goalscoring opportunity. A little Paul the Jersey. -- a little tug at | :05:01. | :05:08. | |
the Jersey. Hearts with a fantastic chance. Danny Grainger... Yes | :05:08. | :05:18. | |
:05:18. | :05:31. | ||
Coors! -- he scores! Hearts had composure, he steps up, and even if | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
the goalkeeper goes the right way, it is a great penalty. With | :05:37. | :05:42. | |
Hibernian down to 10 men, Hearts lead 3-1, it is a long way back for | :05:42. | :05:47. | |
Hibs. Danny Grainger had so much Scottish Cup partake in the past. | :05:48. | :05:53. | |
He would have been part of the Gretna squad that played against | :05:53. | :06:00. | |
Hearts in 2006. That was snatched away from him a few days before. He | :06:00. | :06:05. | |
could not play, but he is playing in this one. That could be the | :06:05. | :06:13. | |
crucial goal in the 2012 Scottish Cup final. His manager knows it. | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
is a safeguard now, 10 men, and a two-goal lead. It was funny, | :06:18. | :06:25. | |
watching the replays, Ian Black could not look at it. Then, Ian | :06:25. | :06:33. | |
Black started celebrating. He has been sent off for pulling the shirt, | :06:33. | :06:42. | |
it is a booking events. -- events. The clip of the heels is why Craig | :06:42. | :06:52. | |
:06:52. | :07:02. | ||
going to be a very long second half for Hibs. The manager makes the | :07:02. | :07:07. | |
right changes, he makes the might - - right formation changes, | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
personnel changes, the momentum is going well, and then they concede a | :07:12. | :07:21. | |
penalty and go down to 10 men. Where does Pat Fenlon go from here? | :07:21. | :07:31. | |
:07:31. | :07:35. | ||
It is another! Hearts are rampant! Rhianna Govan! -- Ryan McGowan! | :07:35. | :07:44. | |
is all over. Hibs switch-off. They cannot leave Rudi Skacel in the box. | :07:44. | :07:50. | |
It is a little touched, and you cannot leave Rudi Skacel there. It | :07:50. | :08:00. | |
is helped on by Stephen Elliott. Ryan McGowan is gambling. Game over | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
for Hibs. Ryan McGowan gleefully heads the ball into the net. It is | :08:04. | :08:10. | |
his third goal of the season, two have come against Hibs. Paulo | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
Sergio is on the verge of greatness, as is Ryan McGowan. The stuff you | :08:15. | :08:23. | |
dream about. Ryan McGowan's father came over from Australia on Monday, | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
he did not know about it until he came to pick him up from the | :08:27. | :08:37. | |
:08:37. | :08:43. | ||
airport. What a moment for the barely had time to celebrate, | :08:43. | :08:48. | |
because Ryan McGowan made it four, and the Hibs fans head for the | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
exits. The worst thing for the Hibernian supporters, it could get | :08:52. | :09:02. | |
a heck of a lot worse. It is cruel. They have not played well for long | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
spells, but they gave their supporters something to cheer about | :09:05. | :09:14. | |
just before half-time. But when you give a penalty away, Pa Saikou | :09:14. | :09:19. | |
Kujabi goes off, he leaves them vulnerable. Hearts get a fourth | :09:19. | :09:29. | |
:09:29. | :09:45. | ||
goal. Hibs fans do not want to risk four, this game. They do not want | :09:45. | :09:50. | |
to open it up any more, as a Hibs player. But damage limitation is | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
the shout now. Try to play compact, still a goal. Do not open up like | :09:56. | :10:04. | |
this. This could be a rout, you do not want that in a Cup final. | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
header is over the crossbar. Marius Zaliukas trying to get in on the | :10:08. | :10:17. | |
act. Again, it is from a set-piece. All day long, they have lost goals | :10:17. | :10:23. | |
from set-pieces. They nearly did so again. Marius Zaliukas got the | :10:23. | :10:33. | |
:10:33. | :10:45. | ||
it will be a yellow card. Not even a hard decision from Craig Thomson. | :10:45. | :10:50. | |
Hearts have been rampant. You cannot legislate for Pa Saikou | :10:50. | :11:00. | |
:11:00. | :11:01. | ||
Kujabi making that challenger. They are getting frustrated now. I do | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
not think it would have been his second yellow card for the | :11:05. | :11:15. | |
:11:15. | :11:15. | ||
unintentional clip, but people to shed, the referee had no choice. -- | :11:15. | :11:25. | |
:11:25. | :11:46. | ||
there. Craig Thomson had a look at that. Credit to Suso Santana. He | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
does not play for the penalty. Leigh Griffiths has got to calm | :11:50. | :12:00. | |
:12:00. | :12:10. | ||
down. They cannot get frustrated the semi-final against 2006. Hearts | :12:10. | :12:20. | |

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :12:20. | :13:00. | |
beak Gretna in the final, 4-0. It does not matter! They are getting | :13:00. | :13:06. | |
more room all over the pitch. Pat Fenlon has been put through the | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
mill today. He made the right tactical changes, but now Lewis | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
Stevenson is having to fill in at right-back, there is no way to turn | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
for them, they just have to make sure they do not lose this by a | :13:19. | :13:27. | |
barrow load. It is all going horribly wrong for Hibernian. | :13:27. | :13:37. | |
:13:37. | :13:37. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :13:37. | :14:29. | |
for Pat Fenlon. Still 35 minutes to fancied them in that situation. | :14:29. | :14:35. | |
Andy Webster did ever so well. He thinks, I will have a go, but Andy | :14:35. | :14:42. | |
Webster stands up. It was a great block, really good defending. | :14:42. | :14:49. | |
McGowan is still struggling. It is because of this, A&E into the side. | :14:49. | :14:59. | |
:14:59. | :15:19. | ||
a player or a coach. -- lost to Hibernian. His career was ravaged | :15:19. | :15:24. | |
by injury. It looks as if he will have another enjoyable night. He | :15:24. | :15:31. | |
looks relaxed, he can really enjoy it and now, 4-1 up. Hibernian down | :15:31. | :15:41. | |

wall of maroon jerseys. He was a half-time, we are looking at | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
Hibernian's frailties, but you have to credit Hearts, the way they have | :17:20. | :17:28. | |
gone about their business. They can now enjoy it. They have dominated | :17:28. | :17:36. | |
it. The performance they had against Celtic in the semi-final | :17:37. | :17:46. | |
:17:47. | :18:10. | ||
player. Sometimes, you just want to leave the bitter end, but they | :18:10. | :18:15. | |
cannot afford to do that. Especially after Pa Saikou Kujabi | :18:15. | :18:25. | |
:18:25. | :18:33. | ||
for Celtic when they beat Dunfermline in 2007. This is not a | :18:33. | :18:42. | |
Cup final he will want to remember. Sadly for him and his team-mates, | :18:42. | :18:52. | |
:18:52. | :19:14. | ||
they will not what -- they will not Santana. But it was taken well by | :19:14. | :19:24. | |
:19:24. | :19:45. | ||
Hearts alongside Jim Jefferies. Who easier watching. -- he is here | :19:45. | :19:55. | |
:19:55. | :20:16. | ||
in the second half has been a 75% to 25%. -- Hearts. Sheer | :20:16. | :20:26. | |
:20:26. | :20:27. | ||
frustration for Hibs. To add to their problems, Griffiths goes down. | :20:27. | :20:34. | |
This is what turned the game at the start of the second half. Just | :20:34. | :20:42. | |
inside the box. Grainger made it 3. Not too long after that, Hearts got | :20:42. | :20:52. | |
:20:52. | :20:54. | ||
a fourth goal. It was Grabbi. They do not care. -- it was a scrappy. | :20:54. | :20:56. | |
Paulo Sergio spend the vast majority of his career in his | :20:56. | :21:02. | |
homeland. A brief spell in France as a player. He was in charge at | :21:02. | :21:12. | |
:21:12. | :21:15. | ||
Sporting Lisbon last season. Good Khamis. That has come through in | :21:15. | :21:23. | |
his players today out on the pitch. Not much Pat Fenlon can do. Some of | :21:23. | :21:30. | |
your players have let you down. Been a liability. Pa Saikou Kujabi | :21:30. | :21:40. | |
:21:40. | :21:45. | ||
has been a liability, got himself sent off. No way back. It is an | :21:45. | :21:52. | |
indictment of where Hibernian are, they are going to bring George | :21:52. | :22:02. | |

move their goals around the team. Managers always harp on at | :22:40. | :22:47. | |
midfielders to get their quota, to get themselves on the scoresheet. 5 | :22:47. | :22:54. | |
or 10 s season always helps. Hearts heading towards an aid macro | :22:54. | :23:02. | |

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds | :23:12. | :24:24. | |
the match. Hearts with that fourth will be back next season? Not a bad | :24:24. | :24:34. | |
:24:34. | :24:38. | ||
way to bow out. Surprised Hearts are not keeping Ian Black? I am. | :24:38. | :24:44. | |
Really surprised they are letting him go. Somebody else's game. | :24:44. | :24:53. | |
seems to have matured. He has taken his combat its style to Hearts as | :24:53. | :24:59. | |
well but he has slotted well into the midfield. There is so much more | :24:59. | :25:09. | |
:25:09. | :25:15. | ||
to his game. Technically very good McPake now at the centre of that | :25:15. | :25:24. | |
Hibs defence. You just wonder if Hibs can keep him. He does | :25:24. | :25:30. | |
everything. He never stops competing. Four-to-one behind, 67 | :25:30. | :25:35. | |
minutes and he is still making last bit tackles. He could be a big | :25:35. | :25:45. | |
:25:45. | :26:03. | ||
player for heads, or somebody else. little bit. -- livened. A bit of | :26:03. | :26:13. | |

start the match -- rather than Templeton. -- Suso. Suso has been | :26:40. | :26:43. | |
exceptional in the past few weeks. He was top man against Dundee | :26:43. | :26:53. | |
:26:53. | :26:57. | ||
United. Alastair Ross just waited, the linesman on the far side. | :26:57. | :27:07. | |
:27:07. | :27:07. | ||
the mines man and the referee always wait. A poor decision. | :27:07. | :27:17. | |
:27:17. | :27:20. | ||
is going to be forgotten. Unless the there is Emerick will at hand | :27:20. | :27:30. | |
:27:30. | :27:40. | ||
end, the final quarter of the game. after the fourth goal. They will | :27:40. | :27:48. | |
have to be built. Pat Fenlon has a huge job on his hands over the | :27:48. | :27:52. | |
summer. Lose the loan players. It was already a squad that needed to | :27:53. | :28:02. | |

to bow out. I double in the Cup final. It went through McPake's | :33:27. | :33:37. | |
:33:37. | :33:38. | ||
legs. No chance for a Mark Brown. Rudi Skacel celebrates. The cherry | :33:38. | :33:45. | |
on the cake. Rudi Skacel, with 15 minutes remaining. They have | :33:45. | :33:50. | |
changed their mind about the change. It will be Suso who is coming off | :33:50. | :33:56. | |
and not Stephen Elliott. Craig Beattie, the man one lot all the | :33:56. | :34:06. | |
:34:06. | :34:07. | ||
possibilities for this afternoon. A big cheer for Craig Beattie. Scored | :34:07. | :34:16. | |
the penalty in injury time against Celtic in the semi-finals. He is | :34:16. | :34:20. | |
very much going through the motions. George Francomb coming on for Tom | :34:21. | :34:26. | |
Soares. You do feel for Hibs. Nobody wants to lose 5-1 in a Cup | :34:27. | :34:34. | |
Final. Hearts have been the better team for most of the game, apart | :34:34. | :34:41. | |
from a ten-minute spell. He has played for 10 minutes, got | :34:41. | :34:47. | |
themselves back into the game, a moment of madness from Kujabi, a | :34:47. | :34:57. | |
:34:57. | :35:17. | ||
real Downer for heads and their 1973. It was much celebrated by | :35:17. | :35:26. | |
Hibernian. B62 game when Hearts were thump. But this, by a long way, | :35:26. | :35:32. | |
will supersede those. The Hibs fans know it as well as the Hearts fans | :35:32. | :35:42. | |
:35:42. | :35:47. | ||
do. The cry is, we want sex. -- we want six. It's bad enough losing | :35:47. | :35:55. | |
key rivals and the final, but even worse with the scoreline. They want | :35:55. | :36:05. | |
:36:05. | :36:19. | ||
damage limitation. You do not want Scottish Cup win in two years. He | :36:19. | :36:29. | |
:36:29. | :36:53. | ||
a good season Ryan McGowan has had. From the first match against | :36:53. | :36:58. | |
Rangers at Ibrox, when he has been in the team, he has been terrific. | :36:58. | :37:08. | |
:37:08. | :37:25. | ||
He had made his -- he has made the frustration. Hearts on 11 minutes | :37:25. | :37:35. | |

have been! James Beattie to Rudi Skacel, a lovely flick. He is | :38:34. | :38:39. | |
enjoying it. He was going for the far corner, he does not miss by | :38:39. | :38:45. | |
much. He has done well, Stephen Elliott. He got the important touch | :38:45. | :38:55. | |
:38:55. | :39:02. | ||
for the fourth goal. A suspicion of He will be delighted just to get on | :39:02. | :39:12. | |
:39:12. | :39:16. | ||
for the final 10 minutes, to savour their fans are. Andrew Driver will | :39:16. | :39:23. | |
come off. When he has been on the ball, he has looked like the player | :39:23. | :39:33. | |
:39:33. | :39:42. | ||
has proven that today. He just needs to get a run in the team and | :39:42. | :39:52. | |

get some fitness, he could be a top 1972. Finally, the 3-0 loss to | :40:16. | :40:26. | |

:42:51. | :43:12. | ||
corner. It is his last game as a Hearts player. He has not been | :43:12. | :43:16. | |
offered a new deal. He will be replaced in a moment by Scott | :43:16. | :43:26. | |
:43:26. | :43:30. | ||
Robinson. He has had another pivotal role. There was a foul. He | :43:30. | :43:37. | |
has found a home again, Andy Webster. He was at Wigan down south, | :43:37. | :43:47. | |
he did not have won at Rangers. He had a home at Dundee United. He is | :43:47. | :43:56. | |
back in defence for Hearts, in the room. Ian black comes off. What a | :43:57. | :44:05. | |
moment for him. He has been man-of- the-match, as well. He started it, | :44:05. | :44:10. | |
getting on the ball. A lovely moment for this young lad. Good | :44:11. | :44:16. | |
luck to him, he has been a top player for Hearts. It he lives and | :44:16. | :44:22. | |
breathes marooned. He has realised a massive drain in his final game | :44:23. | :44:32. | |

for the club. -- massive dream. His future will be one of the most | :44:33. | :44:43. | |

keenly spoken about in the summer. Sergio when he took over. His first | :45:09. | :45:14. | |
game was in the Europa League qualifiers. They ran into a vibrant | :45:14. | :45:23. | |
Tottenham Hotspur. It was good experience for a young squad. | :45:23. | :45:29. | |
Hearts the only team not to concede a goal at White Hart Lane this | :45:29. | :45:34. | |
season. A goalless draw. The match was finished in the first leg. They | :45:34. | :45:38. | |
will be back in Europe. Essien Joss Stone will be delighted about this | :45:38. | :45:42. | |
result, because this puts them up to the Europa League qualifiers as | :45:42. | :45:52. | |

well -- St Johnstone. They finished sent off in the opening minute of | :46:48. | :46:58. | |
:46:58. | :46:58. | ||
the second half. A second yellow card. Darren Barr scored the | :46:58. | :47:04. | |
opening goal. Rudi Skacel has scored two. Danny Grainger took the | :47:04. | :47:14. | |
:47:14. | :47:24. | ||
penalty. Ryan McGowan scored the on to the 90... He is speaking to | :47:24. | :47:30. | |
Pat Fenlon, he has been sent from the technical area. It has got | :47:30. | :47:38. | |
worse for the Irishman. It can only be frustration. For the Hearts fans, | :47:38. | :47:48. | |
:47:48. | :48:06. | ||
it is something else for them to because it has not on his way. I do | :48:06. | :48:16. | |
:48:16. | :48:31. | ||
not think his formation worked in Nightmarish for the Hibs fans are. | :48:31. | :48:35. | |
Hearts have won the Scottish Cup. Edinburgh will be painted no rain | :48:35. | :48:44. | |
tonight. -- maroon. Darren Barr got the party started. The mother of | :48:44. | :48:50. | |
all Edinburgh derbies has been won by Hearts. They have filleted their | :48:50. | :48:55. | |
rivals on the biggest stage of them all in this country. Paulo Sergio | :48:55. | :48:59. | |
guides them to their eighth Scottish Cup triumph, and second in | :48:59. | :49:09. | |

Congratulations, what an afternoon! Phenomenal, absolutely outstanding. | :49:17. | :49:21. | |
Everything about it, they went about their business Brearley. We | :49:21. | :49:27. | |
deserve every minute of it. Did you expect a tough afternoon? Yes, but | :49:27. | :49:32. | |
we knew that if we went about our business, we could do that. The | :49:32. | :49:36. | |
boys have been unbelievable. What does it mean for this bunch of | :49:36. | :49:42. | |
players and the manager? It is massive. We got past Celtic, and we | :49:42. | :49:47. | |
said, let's do it. The manager has kept as relaxed, and he told us to | :49:47. | :49:53. | |
enjoy it. We did the business. enjoy it. We did the business. | :49:53. | :50:02. | |
At top-class performance from Ian Black. And a top-class team | :50:02. | :50:07. | |
performance from Paulo Sergio's team. This result was not in much | :50:07. | :50:13. | |
doubt from start to finish. Hearts will shortly receive the William | :50:13. | :50:22. | |
Hill Scottish Cup. Pat Fenlon heads for the shadows. Edinburgh will be | :50:22. | :50:32. | |

man, suppressing a smile, Alex Salmond, Hearts supporter. Pat | :50:46. | :50:51. | |
Nevin and Craig Levein here. We could not have expected that we | :50:51. | :50:57. | |
would see such a one-sided final? No. Apart from possibly five | :50:57. | :51:03. | |
minutes before half-time, Hearts completely dominated. That is very | :51:03. | :51:07. | |
unusual for a cup final. You do not often see that. You do not often | :51:08. | :51:12. | |
see one team so in control. Once Hibs went down to ten men, it was | :51:12. | :51:20. | |
only a matter of how many goals Hearts would score. They kept | :51:20. | :51:25. | |
possession of the ball rather than trying to go after more goals. That | :51:25. | :51:29. | |
guy in the picture, Ian Black, I thought he was the best player on | :51:29. | :51:33. | |
show today. I thought he was excellent. Andy Webster had an | :51:33. | :51:42. | |
excellent match. Really pleased about Andrew Driver. He is eligible | :51:42. | :51:47. | |
to play for Scotland. He has worked hard to get back to the levels he | :51:47. | :51:57. | |
:51:57. | :51:58. | ||
was that. -- he was that. I am thrilled he is back. He can fly | :51:58. | :52:04. | |
next year. Very special player. Today was always going to be about | :52:04. | :52:09. | |
winners and losers. For Hibs to lose was bad enough, to take that | :52:09. | :52:15. | |
sort of battering was a nightmare? Yes. In the end, he just did not | :52:15. | :52:22. | |
turn a up. Played poorly. Player for player Hearts were better | :52:22. | :52:32. | |
anywhere. On the day they were far better. I think Paulo Sergio came | :52:32. | :52:37. | |
in and took over a good group of players. They are good players at | :52:37. | :52:44. | |
Hearts. I feel Pat Fenlon has had to come in to the Hibs job and has | :52:44. | :52:50. | |
had to do a patch up job it away. Andy, how long will it take to wipe | :52:50. | :52:56. | |
that smile of pure Phase? Probably Monday morning when I fly out. | :52:56. | :53:05. | |
modern afternoon. Brilliant. Great to go two up. They got a goal back | :53:05. | :53:11. | |
before half-time. He expected to be tougher? The wall is expected to be | :53:11. | :53:21. | |
:53:21. | :53:36. | ||
tougher than that. It is never easy. It is a day these guys will not | :53:36. | :53:44. | |
forget ever. It is a day that the Hearts fans can only have dreamt of. | :53:44. | :53:49. | |
Not in several lifetimes has there been a cup final quite like it. An | :53:49. | :53:55. | |
Edinburgh derby Cup final. It has been won, as it was the last time | :53:55. | :54:05. | |
:54:05. | :54:05. | ||
in 1896, by heart of Midlothian. Paulo Sergio joined the glitterati | :54:05. | :54:12. | |
at Hearts. Where were his future the? The jumbos name etched onto | :54:12. | :54:22. | |
the oldest trophy in world football. -- the jam boils. As Rob said, | :54:22. | :54:29. | |
there has to be a loser. Today it is Hibernian. The pain continues | :54:29. | :54:39. | |
for them. It will now stretch into 111 years since they last won at | :54:39. | :54:43. | |
the Scottish Cup. There are dreams have been shattered as Hearts | :54:43. | :54:50. | |
realised there's. Ivan Sproule. He won the League Cup and 2007. So did | :54:50. | :54:59. | |
Lewis Stevenson. They trooped off. Claros was sacrificed early in the | :54:59. | :55:08. | |
game. Nobody ever remembers where they put these medals. A horrible | :55:08. | :55:17. | |
feeling? Not nice. Garry O'Connor has thrown his medal away. That is | :55:17. | :55:24. | |
how much it means to them. Nothing. Or 80 minutes they did not play. | :55:24. | :55:30. | |
There were circumstances in the second half when Kujabi was sent | :55:30. | :55:36. | |
off. Such a frustrating day for the Hibs players and fans. You have got | :55:36. | :55:40. | |
to feel for them. You do not want to lose to your biggest rivals. | :55:40. | :55:49. | |
Especially by this scoreline. Thomson off to euro 2012 in Poland | :55:49. | :55:58. | |
and the Ukraine. -- euro 2012. The stage is now set for Hearts. And | :55:58. | :56:03. | |
four or Marriott's Zaliukas to lift the Scottish Cup. He has actually | :56:03. | :56:13. | |
:56:13. | :56:14. | ||
dreamt about it. He is about to realise that now. He is excited, | :56:14. | :56:24. | |
:56:24. | :56:24. | ||
the Lithuanian. He makes his way up, the Hearts skipper. Never mind the | :56:25. | :56:31. | |
more recent Cup victories, this is the one that will mean the most -- | :56:31. | :56:40. | |
for those who came from the east. Marius Zaliukas lifts the Scottish | :56:41. | :56:50. | |
:56:51. | :56:59. | ||
Cup. The 7-0 defeat in 1973. Big capital claim for Hibs. They have | :56:59. | :57:09. | |
:57:09. | :57:11. | ||
been trumped by this, Big Time. Ryan McGowan, whose family is here | :57:11. | :57:21. | |
to watch this. He scored. Craig Beattie. He got the late penalty | :57:21. | :57:26. | |
against Celtic in the semi-final. Andrew Driver. An end to the misery | :57:26. | :57:34. | |
of the last few years. Suso lifting the trophy. Perhaps a surprise | :57:34. | :57:42. | |
starter for some. A special cheer for Rudi Skacel. They love him. | :57:42. | :57:46. | |
of the match. I would have gone for Black, personally. He certainly | :57:46. | :57:56. | |
:57:56. | :58:00. | ||
played his part. Ian Black will get a special cheer as well. That will | :58:00. | :58:10. | |
:58:10. | :58:13. | ||
be in the Black family album very soon, that picture. Mark Richards, | :58:13. | :58:23. | |
the substitute goalie. -- Mark Ridgers. Paulo Sergio. He has | :58:23. | :58:33. | |
:58:33. | :58:33. | ||
guided Hearts to the Scottish Cup. I think there is a bit of emotion. | :58:33. | :58:40. | |
Not often you see that. It is not a normal day now. He is certainly | :58:40. | :58:50. | |
:58:50. | :58:52. | ||
enjoying it. Great moment for a Paulo Sergio. Plenty of managerial | :58:52. | :58:58. | |
experience in his homeland. His first spell in Scotland. He has | :58:58. | :59:03. | |
come to London and has guided Hearts to Scottish glory. -- Camden. | :59:03. | :59:11. | |
Those guys are late in snow at Tynecastle! -- legends. Three | :59:11. | :59:21. | |
:59:21. | :59:30. | ||
And eighth Scottish Cup triumph for Hearts. Does see map now above | :59:30. | :59:40. | |
Aberdeen in the pecking order. -- they are above. This means as much | :59:40. | :59:48. | |
if not have more than any other triumph in Hearts history. To | :59:48. | :59:54. | |
absolutely annihilated their great rivals in the National Stadium. I | :59:54. | :59:59. | |
am sure they could not have dreamt it would be in such an emphatic | :59:59. | :00:09. | |
:00:09. | :00:22. | ||
Hearts went out of this competition at the first hurdle in three of the | :00:22. | :00:32. | |
:00:32. | :00:52. | ||
last four seasons. They had gone Gary Lough. He was the man who was | :00:52. | :00:55. | |
left standing when Jim Jefferies and Billy Brown left the club in | :00:55. | :01:03. | |
August. To be replaced by Paulo Sergio and his team. Gary Lough is | :01:03. | :01:11. | |
still there. The Hearts players go agreed their families. Most players | :01:11. | :01:21. | |
:01:21. | :01:22. | ||
on the pitch. You cannot beat this moment. You really cannot. Rudi | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
Skacel is with Chris McLaughlin. Congratulations. A very happy man? | :01:26. | :01:36. | |
:01:36. | :01:39. | ||
Bankia very much. I'm so pleased. Atomic mack the better team. There | :01:39. | :01:45. | |
is on Lee one team in Edinburgh. What does this mean to you? | :01:45. | :01:54. | |
Everything. These are expected to be tougher and? Yes. These fans | :01:54. | :02:01. | |
waiting to see if you will be here next season? Probably not. The best | :02:01. | :02:11. | |
:02:11. | :02:16. | ||
way to say goodbye. See what is Rudi Skacel, whose first spell at | :02:16. | :02:23. | |
the club ended with the Scottish Cup. He scored that day as well. | :02:23. | :02:28. | |
That game finished 1-1 and went all the way to penalties. Skacel may | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
have ended his second spell with the Scottish Cup again. You never | :02:33. | :02:42. | |
:02:43. | :02:44. | ||
know in this game. That is one of the cliches they always is. -- used. | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
I'm sure Gary Locke will sympathise for his old mucker, Ali Brown, the | :02:49. | :02:59. | |
:02:59. | :03:05. | ||
I think they will be closing Gorgie road to traffic right about now. | :03:05. | :03:15. | |
:03:15. | :03:24. | ||
Let us hear from Paulo Sergio. Congratulations. How does this | :03:24. | :03:32. | |
feel? Thank you very much. Great. It is what we want. It is what | :03:32. | :03:42. | |
:03:42. | :03:42. | ||
these people deserve. I am so happy and so proud. I am sure you could | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
not have even planned for 5-1? does not matter. The final is to | :03:47. | :03:57. | |
:03:57. | :04:01. | ||
win. Not to play very well or mack. We played what the game gave. | :04:01. | :04:11. | |
:04:11. | :04:15. | ||
Nothing to save. Unless a word for Hibernian. For them and their | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
supporters, hopefully in the future they will have all the big games | :04:19. | :04:27. | |
like this one. All the respect for our opponents. Congratulations. | :04:27. | :04:37. | |
:04:37. | :04:38. | ||
Thank you. Will it Paulo Sergio t a one season wonder or What t be back | :04:38. | :04:48. | |
next campaign? We do not know. Joyful Hearts in Adam Brett tonight. | :04:48. | :04:54. | |
-- Glasgow. It is a day of horror from -- for Hibernian. Danny | :04:54. | :05:00. | |
Grainger. The happy Grainger family. These are the days you want to be a | :05:00. | :05:07. | |
footballer for. To score M1 is even more special. I lost my grandad | :05:07. | :05:13. | |
before the semi-final. Today was massive for me and my family. The | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
goal is for my grandad. That was an She Ju deal for you today? Yes. I | :05:18. | :05:24. | |
have not really being able to get over things. Today has been massive | :05:24. | :05:30. | |
for all of us. My friends and family travelled up de Simic. My | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
son is here as well. It is great for him to look back on. I am so | :05:34. | :05:42. | |
happy. Reidy deserves all the credit. He has been fantastic. | :05:42. | :05:52. | |
:05:52. | :05:52. | ||
Today shows how good a team we can A big surge of emotion for Danny | :05:52. | :05:59. | |
Grainger, the scorer of the second path penalty, followed by the row | :05:59. | :06:09. | |
:06:09. | :06:12. | ||
Rudi Skacel's second put the icing on the cake at the end. No room is | :06:12. | :06:21. | |
the colour. -- marooned. It will be the colour in the capital tonight. | :06:21. | :06:29. | |
The celebrations go on and on. No Hearts fad has left. At the other | :06:29. | :06:39. | |
end of the ground, the stands are completely empty. Conflicting | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
emotions at the end. It was always going to be this way. Yes, one team | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
had to win and one team had to lose it. None of us expected such an | :06:49. | :06:55. | |
emphatic victory for Hearts. All of their best players were wearing a | :06:55. | :07:01. | |
maroon. They thoroughly deserved the victory. The trepidation that | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
the supporters had before the match about not being able to celebrate | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
at the end was proved unfounded. They have won the game very | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
comfortably. Some great performances. Let's hear from the | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
captain. Fantastic scenes behind you, what | :07:18. | :07:27. | |
an afternoon. It is brilliant, Alison! It is a brilliant feeling. | :07:27. | :07:31. | |
You have been around a long time, you have grown to love the club, | :07:31. | :07:37. | |
what does it mean for you personally? This will take a place | :07:37. | :07:45. | |
inside of May. -- inside of me. It is brilliant. A very big party | :07:46. | :07:54. | |
tonight? Yes, and tomorrow as well! We have interviewed at just about | :07:54. | :08:01. | |
everyone now! Smiles on faces all round, what a special day for | :08:01. | :08:09. | |
Hearts. An interesting sadistic, three Scottish Cups in 14 years for | :08:09. | :08:17. | |
Hearts -- statistic. It is not really about Hibernian today, Pat | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
Fenlon had to save the club from relegation, get into a cup final | :08:22. | :08:28. | |
was a bonus. It is painful, but he has got to rebuild the team. Half | :08:28. | :08:34. | |
of those players will not be here next season. I feel sorry for | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
Hearts, in an awed way, because they played brilliantly today, they | :08:39. | :08:46. | |
were by miles the better team, and Paulo Sergio does not seem excited. | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
I do not think he has got the chance to build what he wants to | :08:49. | :08:56. | |
build. Will the best players be there next season? On days like | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
today, you think that you are greedy for it, you want to give | :09:01. | :09:06. | |
this to the fans every year. But once he gets a team capable of | :09:06. | :09:12. | |
winning it, can he afford to keep it on? These are questions for | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
tomorrow. Although I will ask them again in five minutes! For the | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
moment, it is about that special feeling. You have got to the cat | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
what has happened to them this season. -- you have got to look at | :09:26. | :09:31. | |
what has happened. There has always been something going on, but this | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
season has been really tough for the manager. He does not know the | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
club, the players, it has issues with a salary problems, it has got | :09:39. | :09:45. | |
to keep the team together, and it is a great credit to the players | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
that they have got to the Cup final. Today has been easy, the way they | :09:48. | :09:57. | |
have played. Hibernian were not capable. | :09:57. | :10:01. | |
Can be quite believe you have helped to make this happen? | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
cannot believe it is happening at the minute. To see the supporters, | :10:05. | :10:12. | |
it is unbelievable. It is brilliant. Talk me through the golf. I could | :10:12. | :10:19. | |
not get my breath back. It was the spur of the moment. It was my first | :10:19. | :10:25. | |
goal. It was a pretty important one. I was just happy that we started | :10:25. | :10:31. | |
brightly in the second half. this something you dream of? This | :10:31. | :10:37. | |
is why you play football. This is why you train every day. This is | :10:37. | :10:47. | |
what you aspire to. His goal started it all, 1-0, early | :10:47. | :10:57. | |
:10:57. | :10:58. | ||
in the second half -- first half. Craig Levein was talking about | :10:58. | :11:04. | |
Hearts, in recent times, they have defied analysis. This season, at | :11:04. | :11:12. | |
times you thought they were about to implode, and yet they have come | :11:12. | :11:18. | |
through to this. The big question is, what happens next? That was the | :11:18. | :11:27. | |
point I was trying to make! Paulo Sergio had a tough season, and the | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
biggest difficulty, looking at the team, they might be able to do | :11:32. | :11:36. | |
something special, but he knows that Hearts will be downsizing next | :11:36. | :11:41. | |
year. They are losing a lot of the best players. That could be why | :11:41. | :11:46. | |
there has not been a contract agreement between him and the club. | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
The future for the club looks like it will be to develop Academy | :11:50. | :11:54. | |
players, rather than keeping established players. Perhaps he | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
does not want to go back to the start. I will watch with interest | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
to see what happens. He has got a reputation to think about. He has | :12:04. | :12:09. | |
built it up in a troubled season. But he has got to be thinking, if | :12:09. | :12:15. | |
their best players will be sold off in the summer, it will be difficult | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
for him to recreate this sort of success. Yes, managers want to do | :12:20. | :12:27. | |
the best they can. His stock is very high at the moment. He might | :12:27. | :12:36. | |
think it is a good time to move on. About Hearts, if you win a cup, it | :12:37. | :12:44. | |
is fantastic, but to see every player when inkwell and winning | :12:44. | :12:53. | |
easily, and being able to savour it, that is really unusual. Every | :12:53. | :12:59. | |
manager loves this moment, they remember it, but it flies by. But | :12:59. | :13:05. | |
they had 15, 20, 30 minutes at the end, they thought, this is it | :13:05. | :13:10. | |
cannot I will remember this for the rest of my life. -- this is it, I | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
will remember this for the rest of my life. You would imagine that | :13:15. | :13:22. | |
Paulo Sergio deserves a helluva lot of credit for stopping them | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
becoming completely unstuck. They have gone through some very | :13:26. | :13:32. | |
troubled times. In football, their skins -- those things are never | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
kept private. He has had to deal with that, he has had to answer | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
questions about things that are not related to football. He has handled | :13:41. | :13:46. | |
himself extremely well. He has been very dignified. I am thrilled for | :13:46. | :13:55. | |
him, to see the culmination of all of that hard work. What a lucky | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
manager, to have 40 minutes of the match where he has been able to | :13:59. | :14:06. | |
relax. It almost was 40 minutes. After the third goal and Hibernian | :14:06. | :14:13. | |
went down to 10 men, he could relax. It was a situation which we all | :14:13. | :14:21. | |
dream about. It basically does not happen to any manager. He Bennion, | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
against Kilmarnock, they had a bit of enjoyment, but that seems a | :14:25. | :14:32. | |
helluva long time ago -- Hibernian. A lot of people say Hibernian | :14:32. | :14:38. | |
played poorly, but I thought Hearts were very good. They did not come | :14:38. | :14:47. | |
up with any special surprises. As we look back on the first half | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
goals, one was organised chaos, but the second, Rudi Skacel making the | :14:51. | :15:01. | |
The inability to clear the area. The first goal came from that. We | :15:01. | :15:06. | |
spoke about at half-time. Darren Barr reacted quickest. There was a | :15:06. | :15:15. | |
lack of discipline in the defending. You do not walk out. You see a line, | :15:15. | :15:25. | |
you have to be aware. He had a bad day. I do not want to destroy | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
anybody on a cup final day, but yes. Foodie stature or picking up those | :15:29. | :15:38. | |
positions again. -- Rudi Skacel picking up those positions. This | :15:38. | :15:47. | |
was the goal but Hibernian came back with it. A good ball into the | :15:47. | :15:55. | |
box, and James McPake, their best player. We thought, waiting in it. | :15:55. | :16:03. | |
Will they be back into the game? That was the happy moment, when the | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
cup final came back to life. But when you look at it, did Hearts | :16:07. | :16:16. | |
look like a team who scraped survival -- did Hibernian? Yes. | :16:16. | :16:20. | |
Everybody is aware that they have to have major race surgery, but are | :16:20. | :16:27. | |
not good enough to go forward to where they want to be. It all came | :16:27. | :16:35. | |
down to the penalty kick. Was it a penalty kick? In the end, Pa Saikou | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
Kujabi had such a tough day. He dives into every tackle. Fans love | :16:39. | :16:47. | |
him, because he is wholehearted. Hibernian had to build a platform. | :16:47. | :16:52. | |
The bill believe that they could turn this game around and to | :16:52. | :16:59. | |
concede a penalty was disastrous. Yes. You have got to credit Suso | :16:59. | :17:08. | |
Santana. He goes past two players. That is so silly. Is it outside or | :17:08. | :17:18. | |
:17:18. | :17:22. | ||
inside? That is not a penalty from a. -- for me. Pat Fenlon is angry. | :17:22. | :17:30. | |
That is a disgraceful thing, but it is nowhere near a penalty. That has | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
changed the entire game. Hearts would have won that game, they were | :17:34. | :17:42. | |
by far the best team. It was not a penalty, but they deserved a | :17:42. | :17:52. | |
:17:52. | :17:52. | ||
penalty for it. It was a crazy situation, to bring somebody down. | :17:52. | :17:58. | |
We spoke about this area, around the front post. I do not know how | :17:58. | :18:04. | |
many times the Hearts players got in there, unmarked. Well done to | :18:04. | :18:14. | |
:18:14. | :18:15. | ||
Ryan McGowan. He will love that moment. He has got a cup final goal. | :18:15. | :18:22. | |
Hibernian were wary and, how many would be? -- away rien, how many | :18:22. | :18:31. | |
would it be? Rudi Skacel is a class act. He reminds me of John | :18:31. | :18:38. | |
Robertson. Never from that far out! This uncanny ability to hit the | :18:38. | :18:47. | |
target. It is amazing how many breaks you get. He was always going | :18:47. | :18:55. | |
to be a problem for Hibs. They did not deal with him. They tried to, | :18:55. | :19:03. | |
but Jorge Claros never got near him. Does he want to tackle from there? | :19:03. | :19:11. | |
No. Rudi Skacel was too clever. spoke to John Robertson about Derby | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
domination, because there was a phase when Hearts got to 20 games | :19:15. | :19:22. | |
unbeaten. They now have 11. That matters. You want to stay ahead of | :19:22. | :19:27. | |
your rivals. Psychologically, it affects the team that are the | :19:27. | :19:34. | |
underdogs. In some of these games, you are involved in 22 games in a | :19:34. | :19:40. | |
row, and we did not deserve to get anything from some of them, but | :19:40. | :19:44. | |
psychologically, the field you will get something. When one team feels | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
that, you guarantee that the other team is feeling under pressure. | :19:47. | :19:53. | |
That is what is happening now in this situation. When Hearts got | :19:53. | :19:59. | |
back into the game, the third goal killed the game -- when Hibs got | :19:59. | :20:05. | |
back to the gain line. The next time there is a derby match, the | :20:05. | :20:15. | |
last time they played, 5-1, to You talk about the third goal, is | :20:15. | :20:21. | |
that what made Pat Fenlon furious, he ran on to the pitch. We saw Pat | :20:21. | :20:25. | |
Fenlon being sent to the stand late on, let's hear from the Hibs | :20:25. | :20:31. | |
I'm guessing that must have been one of the most painful Hibs | :20:32. | :20:38. | |
matches you have had to endure. desperately disappointing today. No | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
complaint. How do you explain that? It seemed that the Hibs players for | :20:43. | :20:48. | |
the first 30 minutes, they did not seem to be there on the game. | :20:48. | :20:53. | |
think we can explain his with the position where we have struggled | :20:53. | :21:00. | |
over a length of time now. A lack of desire and effort is what is | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
wrong with the place. You can lose games but if you don't show | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
passion... Particularly in the final, we know what needs to happen. | :21:08. | :21:15. | |
Do you think the scoreline was a fair reflection? Yes, I think so. I | :21:15. | :21:20. | |
am devastated for the supporters to be honest. Try have said it before, | :21:20. | :21:29. | |
I am only here... And we have let them down badly. Have you had a | :21:29. | :21:37. | |
time to look at the penalty? Inside or outside the box, I have not seen. | :21:37. | :21:42. | |
We were second fiddle to most of the game. The sending off... It is | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
just giving the ball away so cheaply on a regular basis. I | :21:46. | :21:50. | |
apologise to the supporters for that. A bad day for us, we must | :21:50. | :21:59. | |
take it on the chin and congratulate Hearts. Were you being | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
sent to the stands, was it a gesture to the fans? No, just | :22:04. | :22:07. | |
kicking the ball out of frustration, a bit of desire and passion about | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
the game. It was such a massive Cup Final. So much build up to it as | :22:11. | :22:19. | |
well. Hibs long wait in the Scottish Cup wilderness goes on, | :22:19. | :22:24. | |
what is your message to the fans now? Whatever I say will not make | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
it any easier for them. We apologise for that display. I am in | :22:28. | :22:32. | |
charge of the team and there must take responsibility, that is not | :22:32. | :22:39. | |
good enough but over the to -- two weakens, we have shown what is | :22:39. | :22:43. | |
wrong and we must change that. There will be a few changes but we | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
knew we needed to change things around. There is an acceptance that | :22:47. | :22:52. | |
is not acceptable from our point of you. Can you enjoy your summer now? | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
Probably not but that is football. Commiserations today. Cheers. | :22:55. | :23:04. | |
Tony -- ROB MACLEAN: It is a difficult time to find out that a | :23:04. | :23:10. | |
positive note for Pat Fenlon, but is it a summer surgery case? | :23:10. | :23:14. | |
Interesting, he said there is a softness about the team. Being sent | :23:14. | :23:21. | |
off for shouting at his own players, is that the first time?! You can | :23:21. | :23:29. | |
see the players out there that have not had enough Hearts. -- enough | :23:29. | :23:35. | |
passion. The players haven't got the pressure but they also don't | :23:35. | :23:40. | |
have the feeling to go level. There are players with a professionalism | :23:40. | :23:44. | |
and the feeling that the Hearts players showed today, and he will | :23:44. | :23:50. | |
know that that is not good enough a display. He has a job, keep them in | :23:50. | :23:54. | |
the Premier League. They are in there now, total change for the | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
start of next season now. Lot of Hibs chance will be upset and | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
disappointed with him, I don't think they should be. Next season | :24:02. | :24:07. | |
judge Pat Fenlon on what he does then. You cannot help but feel | :24:07. | :24:12. | |
sorry for the Hibs fans, can you? Such buzz about the final, it all | :24:12. | :24:20. | |
fell horribly flat early on. Yes, but if you asked every Hibs | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
supporter if you thoroughly thought you had a better team than Hearts? | :24:23. | :24:28. | |
The answer before and would be no, they were basing their hope on | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
being their year but if you went individually through the two teams, | :24:32. | :24:35. | |
Hearts have got on top international players and if they | :24:35. | :24:40. | |
are at their best, they will always be too much for Hibs. Hibs' big | :24:40. | :24:45. | |
chance was Hearts underperforming. That did not happen. Hearts reached | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
90% of what they can do. Every player did what they could do. As | :24:50. | :24:55. | |
Hearts were good, Hibs were really sub-standard. They really were. And | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
I feel for Pat Fenlon who is very honest there. He has patched a team | :25:00. | :25:07. | |
together and if I was to be honest, play in a Cup Final with that | :25:07. | :25:09. | |
cripple players was really difficult. He has only managed to | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
put that in together between the last transfer window and the end of | :25:13. | :25:19. | |
season. Papering over the cracks? s. That is what he was saying. He | :25:19. | :25:26. | |
was saying he needs to change it. He started with a system that was | :25:26. | :25:29. | |
very tight in the midfield area. That all my shows you that he does | :25:29. | :25:34. | |
not think he will have belief in it and he will wait for a break. It | :25:34. | :25:38. | |
never happened and too much intelligence and the other team. | :25:38. | :25:43. | |
All joy for Hearts tonight, they always celebrate but that durable | :25:43. | :25:47. | |
quickly turn to consternation about what will happen to their squad. | :25:47. | :25:53. | |
Ian Black off already, other players going as well. Rudi Skacel | :25:53. | :26:00. | |
who has talismanic properties for then, 17 goals and ended with a | :26:00. | :26:06. | |
Scottish Cup win. He is so important to Hearts, will he be | :26:06. | :26:15. | |
allowed to go? They are losing some top players and every club must cut | :26:15. | :26:23. | |
its cloth accordingly. He has spent a lot of money and finally come to | :26:23. | :26:26. | |
the realisation that you cannot keep throwing money at it. The club | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
from now on will have to run itself and balance the books and to do | :26:30. | :26:37. | |
that they must get the wage bill down and that unfortunately means | :26:37. | :26:43. | |
losing good players. Ian Black, we spoke about. My opinion on him has | :26:43. | :26:46. | |
changed to what it was previously because of the way he has played. | :26:46. | :26:54. | |
Today was a typical example, Rudi Skacel is a couple of goals but Ian | :26:54. | :26:59. | |
Black was excellent. Craig Beattie? Yes, losing Craig Beattie. They | :26:59. | :27:09. | |
:27:09. | :27:13. | ||
would not be here if it was not for Probably Hearts fans know that as | :27:13. | :27:18. | |
well but everybody in football is in that position. Making cuts. It | :27:18. | :27:21. | |
is not the end of the world. A good chance that had can go on and bring | :27:21. | :27:27. | |
a few young lads through and it is great to have a Driver back. I | :27:27. | :27:30. | |
think Elliott had a great game so there is enough there to make a | :27:30. | :27:37. | |
good team. Do not worry about relegation next season. Greeting | :27:37. | :27:47. | |
what was on a big day a really big performance. Love at the moment, | :27:47. | :27:50. | |
lovely time. It is the end of the season and a time for celebration. | :27:50. | :27:55. | |
A great night in Edinburgh. It was great to have an Edinburgh derby. I | :27:55. | :27:58. | |
hope it is but another 100-odd years before we have another one | :27:58. | :28:03. | |
and I hope next time it is more fair. I knew I should have gone to | :28:03. | :28:09. | |
Munich! I will be back tonight at half-past 10 as we reflect on what | :28:09. | :28:13. | |
happened here at Hampden today. A special occasion it was a will have | :28:13. | :28:17. | |
all the reaction to it and celebrations which continue in the | :28:17. | :28:23. | |
capital tonight. In the biggest ever Edinburgh derby, Hearts have | :28:23. | :28:27. | |
had their greatest day in this Scottish Cup Final. They hammered | :28:27. | :28:37. | |
:28:37. | :28:37. | ||
Hibs and said to their biggest # Today this could be the greatest | :28:37. | :28:47. | |
:28:47. | :29:20. | ||
# Stay close to me. # Watch the world come alive | :29:20. | :29:29. |
