FULL-TIME Spartans 0-0 Dundee Unitedpublished at 14:59 British Summer Time 5 May
Although the visitors may feel hard done by to not take more from the game this afternoon, that could be a massive point in their quest for survival.

Spartans 0-0 Dundee United
And a bit of late drama at Ainslie Park as Tegan Browning is shown a straight red card giving United a free-kick just outside the Spartans box.
The resulting effort nips over the bar as the referee blows for full-time.
GREAT SAVE!published at 14:56 British Summer Time 5 May
Spartans 0-0 Dundee United
Wowee Megan Sidey! A double save from the United keeper keeps things level as we creep towards the whistle at Ainslie Park.
FULL-TIME Hearts 3-2 Partick Thistlepublished at 14:56 British Summer Time 5 May
It wasn't to be for Brian Graham's side who looked more than out the contest when Hearts put that third goal into the back of the net but they showed the belief that we've seen all season to get themselves back into it and almost steal a point.
Another impressive display from Hearts though as they continue to better last season's points tally.

Spartans 0-0 Dundee United
Nicola Jameison does really well to clear the initial effort but gifted Spartans a corner which almost found its way into the back of the net. They somehow escape and it remains goalless.
HALF-TIME Montrose 1-1 Motherwellpublished at 14:48 British Summer Time 5 May
All square at the break and that's probably a fair reaction of how the first half has played out. Decent chances for both sides but it remains level.

Kodie Hay
That is a screamer Kodie Hay!
Game back on at Oriam as Hay bends one into the top corner.

Cara Henderson
Cara Henderson converts from the spot to pull one back for Thistle!
GOAL HEARTS 3-0 Partick Thistlepublished at 14:34 British Summer Time 5 May
Katie Lockwood
Katie Lockwood makes it three for Hearts!
She taps it into the back of an empty net thanks to the pass from Sade Adamolekun.

Montrose 1-1 Motherwell
Oft so close for Montrose!
Demi Taylor sees her effort glance across the face of goal and go out for a goal kick, didn't look far away though...
Postpublished at 14:29 British Summer Time 5 May
Hearts 2-0 Partick Thistle
Hearts are keeping the pressure on as Demi Falconer has to head behind for a corner.
GOAL Montrose 1-1 MOTHERWELLpublished at 14:26 British Summer Time 5 May
Louise Brown (og)
It looked like Jade McLaren had cleared that one of the line but the referee says Motherwell have the equaliser!

Montrose 1-0 Motherwell
They try again and it's Morgan Cross whose effort is deflected into the side netting.

Montrose 1-0 Motherwell
Motherwell try to respond instantly but Bailley Collins' strike is blocked.
GOAL MONTROSE 1-0 Motherwellpublished at 14:18 British Summer Time 5 May
Louise Brown
What a hit!
Louise Brown bolts down the right before unleashing a strike that nestles into the top corner to give the home side the lead.
Postpublished at 14:15 British Summer Time 5 May
Hearts 2-0 Partick Thistle
Katie Lockwood bolts down the right wing and sends in a cross, Sade Adamolekun is waiting in the centre of the box but she's just too far in front of the ball.
Thistle try to hurt Hearts on the counter but they can't do enough.

Hearts 2-0 Partick Thistle
Thistle have a free-kick deep into Hearts territory and Linzi Taylor goes straight for goal but sees her effort sail over the bar.

Montrose 0-0 Motherwell
Lauren Perry does well to claim the loose ball that Morgan Cross was chasing down.
