Porteous has just pulled off a legitimate goal-saving tackle to deny Long after a clever through ball. If not fort the centre-back’s intervention the striker would’ve had a clear sight at goal from 16 yards.

Extra-time is underway.

That’s the end of normal time. What a finish that was - but there’s more to come. Another 30 minutes plus the prospect of penalties.

Newell has an effort from inside the Motherwell penalty box but it’s curled straight at Kelly.

It’s another goal for Motherwell! Would you believe it? And it’s former Hearts striker Watt who’s got the goal. O’Donnell put in a brilliant cross and Watt was there to head back across Macey and into the far corner.

Goal for Motherwell

Oh dear. Motherwell have cancelled out Hibs’ second almost immediately as Lamie scores from a corner. It’s not over yet!

A cross from Boyle, a deflected effort from Doidge and a close-range finish from Irvine. It’s 2-0 and, with ten minutes remaining, Hibs are surely heading to Hampden!

Another sub from the visitors as Lawlessss replaces Crawford.

The first substitution of the game as Watt replaces Magloire. The visitors have switched into a 4-3-3.

Motherwell just underlined the importance of Hibs grabbing another as Cole came so close to equalising. The striker ghosted away from his marker, turned on the jets and forced Macey into a low front-post save. It’s a real let off for Jack Ross’ side.
