Motherwell advance into semi-finals

30 March 2011 22:00

Motherwell emphatically ended Dundee United's hopes of retaining the Scottish Cup with a comprehensive quarter-final victory at Fir Park.

Impressive finishes from Jamie Murphy, Chris Humphrey and Francis Jeffers secured what will be only Motherwell's second Scottish Cup semi-final since winning the competition 20 years ago.

The home side were on top from the start of the replay and always looked like securing a Hampden date with St Johnstone on April 16 after Murphy netted in the eighth minute.
