Falkirk manager Peter Houston on BBC Radio Scotland: "It is a big game for us if we want to stay in the mix at the top end.

"A big game for Hibs today as they will think that a win for them will probably end Falkirk's chances and they are probably right."

St Mirren boss Jack Ross tells BBC Alba: "It was a very evenly contested, competitive match and I thought we had the better opportunities. 

"But congratulations to Dundee United, it is about taking your chances on the day. 

"I can't fault my players - the effort was terrific.

"We continued to play in the manner we have done and the level of performance was very much at what it has been. 

"If that remains the case of the rest of our league games, we will be fine. 

"Despite our league position, this is a good group and we will use this to continue to move forward. 

"We have a real focus about us and they know their performance level deserved more today."

One change for Morton from last week and it is in defence. Ricki Lambie drops to the bench and in comes Michael Doyle. 

Two changes for Dunfermline. Winger Joe Cardle and defender Ryan Williamson drop to bench, with Andy Geggan coming into midfield along with Paul McMullan come into the starting 11.

Dundee United manager Ray McKinnon tells BBC Alba: "I'm absolutely delighted. It was a tough game and a lot of pressure on us, but I thought the guys delivered. 

"There has been a bit of criticism our way, probably self-inflicted.  

"We have got ourselves caught in battles and the message today was to get the ball down and play - and I think they did that.  

"A lot of credit must go to St Mirren - they made it very difficult for us.  

"But we have won a cup, we have had the experience of dealing with the final and the pressure that goes with it.  

"So that will be good for me and the players for the rest of the season. They should take a lot of confidence from this."

Gordon Strachan says the must-win element to tomorrow's World Cup qualifier against Slovenia actually takes the pressure off his side. 

The Scotland head coach says it leaves the players under no illusions about what is expected at Hampden. 

Scotland sit fifth in Group F with only one win in four games. 

Strachan also told the media today that he has a couple of knocks in the squad but wouldn't elaborate. 

He refused to discuss his own position, but it's understood his time as Scotland boss could well end if his side lose tomorrow night.

Hibernian have not beaten Falkirk here at Easter Rd since 2009 and Neil Lennon makes four changes from the side that drew 2-2 with Dumbarton last week. 

Ross Laidlaw comes back in goal for Ofir Marciano, who is on international duty with Israel. 

Dylan McGeouch, Jordan Forster and Jason Cummings all return with David Gray, James Keatings and John McGinn missing.

Falkirk goalkeeper Danny Rogers is dropped to the bench, with Robbie Thomson his replacement. 

Forward Bob McHugh also comes in, with Nathan Austen dropping to the bench.

The sun is out here at Cappielow and there's plenty at stake for Morton. Least of all an impressive record.

Morton have gone a calendar year without losing at home in all competitions. 

Will they continue that impressive streak today or will Dunfermline Athletic bounce back from defeat by Ayr United last weekend? 

The final whistle is blown and Dundee United win the Challenge Cup final for the first time.

Manager Ray McKinnon gives big hugs to each of his players in turn, but he will maybe admit that they were somewhat fortunate to beat a St Mirren side who had the better chances.

Alex Nicholls misses a good chance to settle the tie as we enter four minutes of stoppage time as the midfielder side-foots wide from the edge of the St Mirren penalty box.

That was Ali Coote's last contribution as he is replaced with Coll Donaldson as manager Ray McKinnon changes to five at the back.
