@Originalcadd: “I have slagged Craig Levein off alot this year but praise where it is due, Congratulations. He has reacted to intense pressure so credit where it is due. I really hope that you make me eat my words.”

@DavidPearson02: "Absolute bear pit during that shootout! The hearts are one their way to Hampden."

@huntero1874: Overall far better “Tynecastle” performance tonight but second half showed still a million miles from where we could and should be. Hats off to Levein and McPhee though they have passed two humongous tests. Now they have two even bigger ones. Hope they can get these 6 points now."

@Ben_1874 joked: "Hearts giving away two penalties to figure out how Aberdeen take penalties and beat them in a penalty shootout. Masterclass from Levein."
