THERE were comfortable wins for Rangers, Glasgow City and Celtic as they maintained their positions at the top of SWPL 1.
Fourth placed Hibernian also won. Rangers stay two points clear following a 5-0 home win over Motherwell. The leaders made three changes from the side beaten by Celtic in the League Cup on Sunday and led 3-0 at half-time. Kayla McCoy and Lizzie Arnot completed the scoring.
Glasgow City were 3-0 up in just 17 minutes against Aberdeen in a game switched to Brechin's Glebe Park. It was 5-0 at half time with Vital Kats getting two of the goals but there was no further scoring in the second half.
Celtic were also quick off the mark at Oriam, although it took them 28 minutes to make it 3-0 against bottom club Hearts. That was also the full time score, leaving Celtic in third place on goal difference behind City.
Hibs were pushed hard by Hamilton Accies at New Douglas Park, with Amy Gallacher's goal just before the half hour the difference between the sides. In the night's other game Spartans and Partick Thistle drew 0-0 at Ainslie Park.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
