Hibs were ahead after only seven minutes in, Kathy McGovern with a close-range shot over the keeper from a dangerous ball in behind by Stacey Papadopoulos.

Celtic ran out 5-0 winners at Spartans, Emma Lawton, Saoirse Noonan and Kelly Clark sending them in three up at the interval.

Lawton doubled her tally late on and with a couple of minutes to go, Noonan did likewise from the penalty spot.
