Former Scotland winger on BBC Radio ScotlandThe decision making from Hibs has not been good in the last five minutes or so.
They are obviously quite spooked. They have to try and calm down and get a hold of the ball at some point.

Jodi McLeary is getting instruction from Jo Potter in the dugout, looks like she'll be joining the action shortly.

Brogan Hay's latest cross just evades the feet of Lizzie Arnot in the Hibs box.
Seeing the replay it looked as though Arnot was just offside anyway.

Worth bearing in mind that Hibs had only conceded 14 league goals before today.
Venturing into seriously unchartered territory for Grant Scott's side.

Hibs are unravelling at Fir Park...

BBC Scotland at Fir ParkAs we've seen, Barry Ferguson is here... but he missed that goal!
Young fans have been waiting for his return to the directors box, and so he was too busy taking selfies with the star-struck youngsters.
Some start for his club, though...

An early free-kick goes Rangers way.
It's about 30 yards or so from goal - very much within shooting distance.

BBC Scotland at Fir ParkTried to grab a word there with Hibs fan Judy Murray, but I was stood up!
She was nipping to loo, but never reappeared.
I don't blame her, tbh.

I wonder what Grant Scott will have in store for his HT team talk. It's by no means game over for Hibs but the next goal in the game could be crucial.

Katie Wilkinson's goal is the difference at the break.
This final is not over yet though. Let's see what the second half brings.

Hibs are under the cosh in the closing second of this half.
It's a wonderful save from Erin Clachers to deny Kirst Howat's initial shot and a vital block from Siobhan Hunter as the ball bundled back out to the feet of Lizzie Arnot.

This could be promising for Hibs.
Ciara Grant wins a free-kick about 30 yards from the Rangers goal.
Rampant Rangers lifted the SWPL Cup for the third consecutive season after emphatically defeating record-winners Hibernian for the first time this season at Fir Park.
Head coach Jo Potter said pre-match that Rangers' results against Grant Scott's league leaders were an "added incentive" to retain the first trophy she won in charge a year ago.
There was no similar struggle on this big stage thanks to goals from Katie Wilkinson, Camille Lafaix, Kirsty Howat and Rio Hardy, plus a Kirsten Reilly deflection into her own net.
After an expected even start between the top two sides in the SWPL, the holders got a grip of things and their opener appeared a matter of when, not if, after a prolonged period of peppering the Hibs' box.
And striker Wilkinson, at the second time of asking, lashed the ball in from close range for her 39th goal of a superb personal season.
Conceding just six minutes before the break was a sucker-punch for Hibs, who were chasing a record-extending eighth success in this competition, and it was nearly two had it not have been for Siobhan Hunter's last-ditch tackle.
That only temporarily tamed Rangers, who doubled their lead under two minutes into the second half.
A hopeful, launched ball into the box was not dealt with by the Hibs defence and American midfielder Lafaix cushioned in to ensure the trophy would remain in Rangers' cabinet.
Celebrations were still being enjoyed when the third was bundled in by stretching Hibs captain Reilly.
Former Hibs forward Howat capitalised on the evident exhaustion among the Edinburgh side's ranks, firing a fourth in from near range before Hardy fired another dagger into Hibs' hearts deep into the game.
It could have been so different on an afternoon Hibs had the ball in the back of the net first, but Michaela McAlonie was markedly offside and the raised flag on the near-right side was correct.
What they said
Hibernian head coach Grant Scott: "It's a sore one to take, a lot of learning and analysis to do on that one.
"We critically lost goals at bad times in the game so a sore one to take."
Rangers head coach Jo Potter: "It was so enjoyable, I could enjoy it more this year than last year.
"The scoreline and how we played made it so comfortable for us on the sidelines to enjoy and relax and drink it all in."
