Hearts won the Scottish Cup for the first time in six seasons yesterday, brushing aside Edinburgh rival Hibernian to win the final 5-1 at Hampden Park.

Defender Darren Barr put the Jambos ahead in the 15th minute and Rudi Skacel doubled the lead 12 minutes later. James McPake reduced the deficit just before halftime to revive Hibs' hopes of a first ever cup win but Danny Grainger and Ryan McGowan scored in the first five minutes of the second half to make it 4-1.

Skacel added his second goal with 15 minutes remaining to complete the most one-sided Scottish Cup final since Rangers beat Aberdeen 4-0 in 2000.
