Last updated : 22 May 2017 By Steve Forbes

Hibs Ladies ran out comfortable winners in this afternoon's SWPL Cup Final against Celtic at Broadwood Stadium.

The Hibees running out 4-1 winners.

Kirsty Smith gave Hibs the lead after only 5 minutes with a superb curling effort from outside the box.

Celtic, straight from kick off, ran right up the park and made it 1-1 a minute later.

The Hibs Ladies didn't let that hold them back as they went 2-1 ahead through Graham on 35 minutes and held on to that lead until the half time whistle.

Just a minute in to the second half and it was 3-1, this time a goal from McLauchlan, who knocked in a cross ball from Turner.

78 minutes and it was 4-1, the rampant Hibees adding to their lead, Tweedie driving through the Celtic defence, and setting up Small who slotted in past the helpless Celtic keeper.

Hibs Ladies seen it out and Chris Roberts side added yet another trophy to their ever expanding trophy cabinet, and retain the trophy they won last season.
