    FT: Glasgow City 0-1 Celtic

    That sets us up for a thrilling remainder of the season.

    Celtic lost to Rangers in the league, but beat them in the SWPL Cup semi-final, before getting the better of champions Glasgow City in the final.

    Rangers currently lead the title race, with City two behind and Celtic five off them.

    For now, Celtic become the first team outside City or Hibernian to win a trophy since they last did it in 2010.

    Celtic manager Fran Alonso tells BBC Alba: "I'm absolutely delighted, it's a very magic day. I thought we controlled the game, had so many chances, but the most important thing is we got the win.

    "We were fighting for every ball. I'm so proud of the girls. Silverware is amazing.

    "We beat the best teams in the country to win the trophy."

    Kelly Clark has waited a long time as Celtic captain to get her hands on a trophy.

    And she finally does as she lifts the SWPL Cup high into the Glasgow sky.

    Caitlin Hayes got the goal, but on top of that she was a rock for her team at the back. For me she was the player of the match.

    You can't say Celtic didn't deserve it.

    Apart from a brief flurry from Glasgow City, Celtic very much dominated the 90 minutes and could well have won by more than one goal. Caitlin Hayes' first half header was enough in the end though.

    A fantastic performance from Fran Alonso, who wins his first trophy since arriving in Scotland.

    All the late pressure is coming from Ceoltic.

    Fine one-touch passing opens up the chance for Tegan Bowie but goalkeeper Lee Alexander is able to get down low to block her route to goal.

    Time is running out for Glasgow City, but they can't get near Celtic's box with Fran Alonso's side defending so well in midfield.

    Meanwhile, former Glasgow City midfielder Tyler Toland replaces Sarah Harkes.

    Glasgow City 0-1 Celtic

    Caitlin Hayes gives away a soft corner under little pressure.

    Glasgow City's Hayley Lauder swings it in and Claire Walsh heads it off the top of the crossbar, and the ball lands into the hands of the grateful Celtic goalkeeper.

    Fine play from Olivia Chance as she golds onto the ball despite the attention of two Glasgow City players.

    She plays a through-ball for Jacynta, but it just has too much on it and goalkeeper Lee Alexander is able to get to it first.

    Good play from Glasgow City's Priscilla Chinchilla on the left hand side for Celtic. She cuts down the left hand side, a couple of stepovers helps take the ball away from Chloe Craig, but her looping shot is a simple save for Rachael Johnstone.

    Clarissa Larisey hits a snap shot wide of the post.

    It looked close, though replays show it was quite a fair distance wide.

    Will Celtic live to regret not finishing this game off?

    Glasgow City 0-1 Celtic

    Just under 20 minutes to go, Glasgow City have yet to find an answer.

    Celtic are knocking the ball around confidently and are creating the better chances.

    But Glasgow City, who have 39 league goals this season, always score. It's been a long time since they failed to score domestically. Surely they're not going to draw a blank today.

    However, they didn't score the last time they were in the SWPL Cup final - that one ended 0-0 and Hibs won it on penalties.

    Glasgow City need to get Ode Fulutudilu on the ball more, she's the one who looks like she can make something happen.

    She wins a corner, but Hayley Lauder's effort goes into the side netting.
