Peter Houston hits back at Alan Stubbs claim

Peter Houston claims that Hibernian manager Alan Stubbs was wrong to say that Falkirk did not deserve to win the Scottish Cup semi-final between the two teams.

Falkirk manager Peter Houston has claimed that Alan Stubbs was wrong to say that Hibernian deserved to win their Scottish Cup semi-final at Hampden Park.

The Bairns booked their place in the final thanks to a Craig Sibbald goal, but Stubbs said that he was in "disbelief" that Hibernian lost the match.

"After every game we've played against Hibs this season, they've deserved to win, according to Alan," Houston told Sky Sports News.

"What he should maybe think about is where we're getting our goals from - crosses into the box. Deal with it. That's what I would do. Rather than say only one team deserved to win he should think about how the team beat you.

"They were the better football team today but don't disrespect us by saying we didn't deserve to win - we put a lot into the match defensively and the most important thing is that we scored the goal to win the match."

Falkirk will play either Celtic or Inverness Caledonian Thistle in the final. The two teams meet at Hampden Park tomorrow.
