Hibernian manager Alan Stubbs: "I've just said to the lads they should be really pleased and that I'm proud of the way they played again.
"We've played really well and we've raised our game in the last couple of months.
"When you go to penalties, it's a lottery and I'm just proud of the ones who stepped up as it's not easy.
"People think taking a penalty is easy, but it takes a lot of courage and it's only easy when it goes in.
"We've gone toe to toe with one of the best teams in the country and come out of it with a lot of credit."
Dundee United manager Jackie McNamara: "First and foremost, give credit to Hibs - I thought it was a fantastic match with both teams going at it.
"I don't think there was much time for breath throughout the whole match and it was a great advert for Scottish football with the amount of young talent on display.
"Obviously Hibs had a chance to win it and there was a fantastic save by Rado - then he pulled off another one to get us through to the next round.
"It is more relief than anything. it was a tiring match and the lads are absolutely drained in the dressing-room, but it is a good feeling to have won it.
"I thought we looked stronger in the first half of extra time, but credit to Hibs, they kept coming at us and it was a fantastic win for us."
