GLASGOW, Scotland (AP) " Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon was criticized by soccer club Rangers on Sunday for failing to condemn the behavior of Hibernian fans after violent scenes marred their Scottish Cup final. In a post from her official Twitter account, Sturgeon congratulated Hibs on their win but didn't comment on the crowd trouble. Rangers called on governing body Scottish Football Association and police to investigate "where security measures failed." Hibernian supporters broke one of the goalposts and ripped up sections of the Hampden turf, while fights broke out among rival fans. Several Rangers players were assaulted as thousands of Hibernian fans came on the field following Hibs' dramatic 3-2 win at Hampden Park on Saturday.
