With a chance of playing at Hampden in the semi finals up for grabs, Motherwell faced the difficult task of taking on current Premier Sports cup holders and league leaders Celtic at Fir Park.
After frustrating Celtic for the opening 40 minutes, Celtic continued to push for the opener and got just that on the stroke of half time.
With the deadlock broken, the Hoops quickly put the game to bed early in the second half and dumped the steelmen out of the cup for another season.
Motherwell exited the Premier Sports cup with a 0-4 defeat to Celtic at Fir Park.
A Liel Abada double, and goals from Hatate and Kyogo consigned ‘Well to a defeat from the defending champions.
Celtic started as they meant to continue – in top gear. This made life difficult for the Steelmen although they held strong until moments before half-time.
The Motherwell defence was eventually penetrated when Haksabanovic and Taylor combined on the edge of the box and put it on a plate for Abada to open the scoring from close range.
Frustratingly ten minutes after the break it was 0-2.
Juranovic’s powerful shot was parried by Kelly and it landed right at the feet of Abada who cushioned a finish past Kelly.
Minutes later the tie was killed.
Abada’s cross from the right found Hatate and he showed quick feet to knock the ball past Lamie and then Kelly.
Kyogo added a fourth, pouncing on a shot that came back off the post, sending the Steelmen out the cup and back to league business on Saturday.
“We came into this game with a lot of belief but we are disappointed with the way it played out.”
Steven Hammell says his team has ran every team close, including Celtic and Rangers, but insists that is not enough.
The manager wants his team to go that one step further and make it a night to remember at Fir Park.
Midfielder Josh Morris is relishing the opportunity to make it to Hampden with Motherwell.
The task couldn’t be tougher for the ‘Well, but Morris is confident with home advantage, the Steelmen can cause an upset.
In the first of a double header against the old firm, it was Rangers who made the short trip down the M74 to Fir Park, as Motherwell looked to bounce back from defeat against Hibernian in the cinch Premiership.
Steven Hammell’s men started the game well, limiting Rangers to very few openings in the first half.
After the first period ended 0-0, Kevin van Veen got the first major chance for Motherwell with Sean Goss slipping the ball through for the Dutchman, however his effort was saved.
Rangers would break the deadlock on 53 minutes, with Tillman running through the Motherwell backline to slot past Liam Kelly.
John Lundstram made it two from a corner as the scouser’s header took a deflection to take the ball past Kelly between the posts.
Motherwell continued to stay in the game and Motherwell boyhood fan Stuart McKinstry laced a free kick into the top corner with 13 minutes to go to half the deficit.
The ‘Well couldn’t find a second and for the fifth time in the league this season, Motherwell were beaten by a one goal margin.

A place at Hampden is up for grabs for the winner of this quarter-final clash.
The two sides met just over a fortnight ago. On that occasion Celtic narrowly won 2-1.
The Steelmen reached the quarter-final by overcoming Inverness CT 4-0 at Fir Park in August. Celtic also scored four, beating Ross County 1-4 in Dingwall.
You’d have to go back to 2013 to find the last time Motherwell beat Celtic at home but Steven Hammell’s men will be looking to right that record under the Fir Park floodlights.
