They had to come from behind at the national stadium, a Joe McPherson own goal cancelling out Connor McLennan’s opener for the Dons and two goals in six minutes from Ryan Porteous and Jamie Gullan completing the turnaround. Here’s what the squad is up to these days…
9. Fraser Murray, left midfield
There or thereabouts with the Easter Road first-team squad for a while, he made 30 appearances and scored four goals in green and white but fell out of favour and moved to Dunfermline on loan in 2020. Signed permanently for Kilmarnock in the summer of 2021, reuniting with Oli Shaw, and the pair helped Killie win the second-tier title and promotion back to the top flight.

10. Oli Shaw, centre-forward
Top scorer in the 2017/18 development league with 19 goals, Shaw played a big part in the equalising goal at Hampden and teed up Jamie Gullan for the third. Had scored seven goals in 25 games for Stenhousemuir the previous season and was tipped for great things, but left Hibs after 12 goals in 65 games, initially joining Ross County before switching to Killie. Now at Barnsley in England’s League One. Photo: SNS Group Ross Parker
11. Jamie Gullan, centre-forward
Scored three times in 37 first-team appearances for Hibs but was mostly used off the bench. Spent time on loan at Gala Fairydean and Queen’s Park, before three consecutive loans with Raith Rovers, whom he joined on a permanent basis last summer. Scored the third goal in the final.
