Hamilton sustain rare loss

           
City assistant first team coach Donald Jennow expressed his frustration with his side's performance.Accies battled back from two goals down to restore parity against Rangers but the home side re-asserted themselves with three further goals.First and foremost we got three points which is our aim at the start of every game," he said of Glasgow's fourth win from as many matches.A hat-trick from Katie Reilly contributed to a much-needed victory for Spartans, their first points of the new season. Hibs, who have won three out of three, roared into a 3-0 half-time lead with goals from Susan Fairlie, Caroline Weir and Siobhan Hunter.That aside, it was nowhere near the level we expect from ourselves. There is an expectation at this club and I think everyone in the dressing room would agree we didn't meet that expectation with today's performance.Elsewhere, Rangers gained a 5-2 victory over Hamilton and in doing so inflicted on Accies their first defeat in almost 10 months.The conditions were not ideal, but that is no excuse. We need to improve for what will be a tough game against Celtic next week in the Cup.First-half goals from Eilish McSorley, Lisa Robertson, Leanne Crichton, Julie Melrose and Leanne Ross (penalty) put City firmly in the driving seat against the Dons.Midfielder Murray was shown a straight red for a two-footed challenge straight after the break and Heather Richards pulled a goal back for Celtic before Chloe Craig added a spot-kick for the hosts.
