Glasgow City defeat Celtic to stretch lead to five points in the SWPL, while Hibernian go second.

Aberdeen 1-5 Hearts
Partick Thistle 0-2 Montrose
Rangers 11-0 Hamilton Academical
Motherwell 0-5 Hibernian
Celtic 1-2 Glasgow City

Glasgow City’s Sofia Maatta and Lisa Evans put them two goals ahead against Celtic, before a Saoirse Noonan effort gave the Hoops late hope.

Hibernian move up to second after putting five past Motherwell, with Eilidh Adams contributing two goals. Ellis Notley had one goal and three assists, while Stacey Papadopoulos and Siobhan Hunter also found the net.

Rangers overran Hamilton led by a five-goal haul from Katie Wilkinson. Laura Berry scored a couple and there was a goal apiece from Quinty Sabajo, Kim Shin Ji, Mia McAulay, and Alice Griffiths.

A Kaela McDonald-Nguah’s double secured Montrose the points at Patrick, as she added to her sixth-minute goal in the later stages.

Carly Johns’ first-half brace set Hearts on the road to victory, with Bayley Hutchison, Joely Andrews, and Sade Adamolekun’s penalty all extending the advantage, before a consolation goal from Abi Tobin.
