Alan Stubbs: 'I cannot believe Hibernian loss'

Manager Alan Stubbs cannot believe that Hibernian lost their Scottish Cup semi-final against Falkirk.

Alan Stubbs cannot believe that Hibernian lost their Scottish Cup semi-final against Falkirk this afternoon.

Craig Sibbald scored 15 minutes from time to give Falkirk a 1-0 victory, but Hibernian dominated the match until that point.

"My reaction is the same as everybody else. It's one of disbelief that we haven't come through that," Stubbs told Sky Sports News.

"We controlled the entire game and that makes it worse. It's the worst time to lose in a competition because you are so close but so far. I just wish we had some of the luck the opposition had today. We have to be more clinical. You have to take your chances.

"An element of that was down to the luck they carried. You can accept one coming off the post and back into the keeper's arms, but when you have another you maybe start to think, 'is it one of those days?"

The Edinburgh club were looking for their Scottish Cup triumph in 114 years.
