Dundee United 0-2 Hibs: Nisbet and Doidge fire Hibs to Scottish Cup final
Hibs had fallen at the last-four hurdle twice in the last six months but there was to be no repeat against Micky Mellon’s side.
Nisbet netted the opener just before the half-hour mark, placing a shot from the edge of the box beyond Deniz Mehmet, before Christian Doidge, although offside, struck a second.
United had their chances but found Matt Macey unbeatable.

Mehmet does well to punch a second Hallberg corner clear of the box. The Swede’s set-piece delivery could be important today.

Hibs with slightly different kit numbers today - larger green numbers on the shorts and rounder numbers on the shirts.
