Tommy Wright targets Scottish Cup final

Wright targets Scottish Cup final

St Johnstone manager Tommy Wright has targeted the Scottish Cup final following his side's 3-1 victory against Raith Rovers in the sixth round earlier today.

The Saints, who lost 4-0 against Aberdeen at the semi-final stage of the League Cup last month, are now just 90 minutes away from a place in the final.

"I have said to the players that we deserve another crack at a semi-final to lay the ghost of the Tynecastle result," Wright is quoted as saying by Sky Sports.

"Hopefully, we can also get a crack at a final. If we play the way, we can play I don't think it matters who we play in the semi-final, they are all about who plays on the day."

Goals from Gary McDonald, Nigel Hasselbaink and Steven Anderson were enough to give St Johnstone victory at Stark's Park.
