All the goals came in the last half-hour or so, as Glasgow City edged Hibernian 3-2. Nicole Robertson and a Jenna Clark header had City two ahead, Kirsty Morrison replied before Mairead Fulton fired home a third for the hosts, with Hibs getting a last-minute second through Siobhan Hunter’s free-kick.

Spartans got off the mark with a good 1-0 victory over Forfar, Becky Galbraith’s effort via a set-piece adjudged to have crossed the line.
