Rangers draw St Mirren in Cup

St Mirren will have to beat Rangers if they are to reach their first Homecoming Scottish Cup final since 1987.

The Paisley side clinched a place in the semi-final with a shock home 1-0 win over Celtic yesterday but were paired with the holders who beat Hamilton 5-1 at Ibrox today.

Falkirk will meet either Aberdeen or Irn-Bru First Division side Dunfermline, who will replay after a 1-1 draw at East End Park.

The Clydesdale Bank Premier League’s bottom side made history by winning at fellow SPL strugglers Inverness thanks to a Carl Finnigan penalty yesterday.

The Bairns have reached the semi-finals of both major domestic cups for the first time in their history.

Homecoming Scottish Cup semi-final draw:

Rangers v St Mirren

Falkirk v Aberdeen or Dunfermline

Ties to be played on weekend of April 25/26.
