Hibs Girls Progress To League Cup Final

Hibs Girls met last weekends league opponents East Kilbride at Hamilton Palace and although Hibs won the game 6-3 they were well out of sorts, fortunately for Hibs, East Kilbride were unable to capitalize resorting to the long ball game. Free flowing passing football was limited partly down to the size of the small park with the midfield area congested at times. Defensively Hibs were at sixes and sevens particularly in the first half with the midfield often too far forward and the normally potent strike force missing to many chances, that said however East Kilbride can thank the woodwork for saving their blushes on five occasions.

Cumbernauld Cosmos v Paisley Saints

Cumbernauld Cosmos came from behind to scrape a 2-1 win over Paisley Saints in the other league cup semi-final. Cosmos who were beaten 4-2 by Hibs in last seasons final will now meet the girls from Edinburgh again in this seasons final. Cosmos who have never won against Hibs in all nine meetings between the sides will be looking to change that statistic while Hibs will be looking to make it ten in a row.

Hibs Girls Blow Ayr Away

Hibs Girls were down to the bare bones for their first encounter with Ayr United this season with three players unavailable and one injured leaving them with nine fit players and two girls playing despite feeling unwell. Ayr United however are a young team for this age group and are still finding their feet at this level and for this reason Hibs would prove far to strong for their opponents...........

EASY WIN FOR HIBS GIRLS

Hibs Girls entertained Dundee Girls for the first time and proved too strong in all departments for the girls from the North. In a one sided league cup quarter-final Hibs hit the back of the net ten times and it could have been a lot more if not for some very good saves and a spirited display from Dundee's big keeper Natalia Macholla.                    Click Here for More
