Motherwell pushed Spartans all the way before being edged out in a seven-goal thriller. Niamh Johnston got a couple and Pamela Liddell the other for the upwardly mobile underdogs who retrieved a two-goal deficit. However, efforts from Simone McMahon, Laura Gavin, Alana Marshall and Bobbie Beveridge took Spartans into the quarter-finals.
Natalie Ross’s 19th-minute goal was enough for Celtic to defeat Forfar, who had a player sent off in the final 5 minutes.
Glasgow City overcame Jeanfield 8-0 with their victory featuring a hat-trick of headers from Savannah Jordan.
Eight goals also at Stirling where the students got seven of them against Buchan. The visitors had levelled before Russell’s treble on her debut helped the hosts ease home.
The top goal tally of the day was at Rangers though, with an 8-3 defeat of EUHV, who had levelled at 2-2 with only 25 minutes left! Jordan McLintock and Chantelle Brown both bagged a brace for the Blue Belles.
Hearts were 3-0 winners over Hamilton with a brace for Ashley Carse and one for Jen Dodds.
Amy Gallacher marked her competitive Hibs debut with three assists, as her side hit East Fife for six.
