Ivanauskas stakes claim for top job as Hearts reach Cup final

Hibernian 0 Hearts 4

The Lithuanian steered the Tynecastle club to the final of the Tennent’s Scottish Cup with a 4-0 mauling of Edinburgh rivals Hibernian at Hampden Park yesterday - and then faced questions on his future.

Ivanauskas has won two successive games since replacing Graham Rix and is 90 minutes away from lifting the Scottish Cup. But he admits he has no clue whether Vladimir Romanov will install him full-time.
