Hat-trick for Keane

A second-half hat-trick from Robbie Keane saw Celtic defeat Kilmarnock 3-0 at Rugby Park to reach the semi-finals of the Scottish Cup - the draw for which will be made on Monday.

Jimmy Calderwood's men were well in the game in the first half and Allan Russell hit the crossbar but on-loan Tottenham hitman Keane broke the deadlock in 64 minutes with a neat finish and added a quickfire double in the closing stages to secure victory for the visitors.

Hibernian face an awkward replay at First Division Ross County after being held to a 2-2 draw at Easter Road this afternoon.
