Skacel scored in that final. He scored three Scottish Cup goals

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

Scottish Cup finals. We predicted AKG affair. Do you still go along

that line? That depends on the first half-an-hour. If there is not

: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

Hibs boss and managed to steer them Kier of relegation in the SPL,

: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

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

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

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds

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

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

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.
:12:20.: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.
:15:41.:15:41.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 42 seconds

:15:41.:17:16.

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.

Really surprised they are letting him go. Somebody else's game.

seems to have matured. He has taken his combat its style to Hearts as

to his game. Technically very good McPake now at the centre of that

Hibs defence. You just wonder if Hibs can keep him. He does

everything. He never stops competing. Four-to-one behind, 67

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

very much going through the motions. George Francomb coming on for Tom

Final. Hearts have been the better team for most of the game, apart

from a ten-minute spell. He has played for 10 minutes, got

themselves back into the game, a moment of madness from Kujabi, a

:35:17.:35:26.

Hibernian. B62 game when Hearts were thump. But this, by a long way,

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

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

for the fourth goal. A suspicion of He will be delighted just to get on

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

he did not have won at Rangers. He had a home at Dundee United. He is

back in defence for Hearts, in the room. Ian black comes off. What a

moment for him. He has been man-of- the-match, as well. He started it,

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

breathes marooned. He has realised a massive drain in his final game

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

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.

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

rivals on the biggest stage of them all in this country. Paulo Sergio

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

:50:46.: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.

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
