What did the 2nd goal look like?

Played through and beat both Aberdeen centre backs. Fantastic goal.

[jabis]

Hopefully Carlsberg do Wednesday's as well

[mutley]

2-2 Hearts. Anyone want them to go through so we can get them at ER in the next round?

Malonga - there must be a place for an unpredictable talented footballer player in a Hibs team - the goal proves why.

We just made the top team in Scotland's top league look very, very average at best.

[Stax]

Well done boys, great to be through to the next round. A real marker put down and should give the team a real confidence boost. Ggtth

[blackpoolhibs]

Absolutely fantastic Hibs, 2 of the best goals you will see and a performance that more than matched the best team in the country at the moment.

Fantastic Hibs. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

[pontius pilate]

Well done to everyone at the club. What a fantastic result and could be the massive boost too kick in the next few weeks and have the belief we can do this

Brilliant just brilliant Hibs.

TBH I haven't been that impressed whenever I've seen them this season. But I wanted to keep that quiet until after tonight's game!

[Joe's ice cream]

For all those doubting the team selecton prior to kickoff think it's clear to see what AS had in mind and why he went with this selection

[Green Diet]

How unpredictable Hibs are. Just when we are almost certain to disappoint again,the team comes up with a performance is that is both awesome and baffling at the same time.

The love affair continues...

Absolutely fantastic. Was thinking Just the other day how good a squad Stubbs has built. I think it's very strong. Just need the consistency. Hopefully this pushes us on.

it's no coincidence that this happens when some key new players are fit and the squad is stronger....on a related point - I have to say, as one of his biggest critics - top marks to Oxley for stronger performances and more consistency..

[CraigHibee]

Great performance, need to build on this result but I think we will do well 👍

[Pretty Boy]

In all the clamour to praise bit part players like Stubbs, Malongs, Cummings and Fontaine are we not all forgetting the real hero of the evening?

Works for me. Do you want to start it now just to be sure?

[Bishop Hibee]

Great performance from all the players. Top marks to Stubbs for getting the formation absolutely right. I didn't fancy us at all but just when you wonder how Hibs will win, they put in a display like that with two great goals.

Ooh to be.......

You took it on when no one seemed to want to so ,yep credit where credits due and we need the win on Saturday so you are the man in possession :agree:

[Greenblood70]

Im spent after that - the celebrations after Malonga slalomed thru the Aberdeen defence for the second nearly finished me.

Hanlon marshalled that defenc superbly tonight, midfield dug in even when the going got tough, and what can you say about Jason and King Dom - two goals of absolute quality.

If for whatever reason your a lapsed supporter and are capable of getting along finincially, come out and support this team. They wont fail for lack of trying or heart and there is a decent team in there. We are still gelling, it can and will get better. Do yourself a favour and get back to ER and fall back in love with the Hibees!

[Lago]

Well that was a very pleasant suprise. Well done hibs.:agree:

[Oscar T Grouch]

Brilliant performance tonight by the boys. Aberdeen had 1 shot on target all night, I lost count of ours. Two amazing goals, almost passed out when Dom scored. Best night a ER for a while, 6 clean sheets, first team to shut Aberdeen out, real quality up front, couldnae be happier tonight, well, if I'm picking holes I would have liked to have seen the puddle drinkers knocked out, but apart from that :thumbsup:

[Stokesy's on fire]

Where's that MC-don guy wh posted on here last season when you need him? Get it clean up them! They are so sour about this one as well I love it

[IanM]

Managed to just make the game. Oxley has been superb this season, really turned the screw, has his defence well organised. Distribution is great, handling great, doesn't appear to be making any rash judgement calls and has again pulled off a good save at 0-0.

Delighted for him, at the end you could see what the clean sheet meant

[green day]

Just back. Stubbs tactics were spot on. We played well and contained their "flair" players. This was a v strong Aberdeen side, and not playing hugely defensive championship sides seems to suit us.

Oh, and two brilliant goals.

[Nakedmanoncrack]

Best performance for years, and two magnificent goals.

[brog]

I loved seeing celebratory tweets from players not in team including Keatings, Feruz & Fyvie. Shows great team spirit.

[emerald green]

Hibs done the supporters proud tonight. The whole team played well and another clean sheet.

Malonga's goal is one of the finest I've seen at ER for a long time. A piece of pure brilliant footballing skill.

[iwasthere1972]

That was quality. Especially the last half hour or so.

Thought Malonga was in slow motion but what a goal.

When's the final? Hope it's no snowing again. :greengrin

We need to keep playing 3-5-2 :agree: it suits the players we have.

[seanshow]

Everyone played well, but McGinn again for me class act for such a young man :wink:

The linesman was infuriating in the first half I counted 5 offside decisions he missed for the sheepies could have caused us big time, what a bell end.

I had a feeling we were going to win at around 60 min mark just the way the game was going, but the goals were fantastic,Dom more than made up for his sitter on Saturday with that solo effort tonight. That's why you go and support your time for joyace results like that!

ps - its only one game, back to basics against Stmidden on Saturday, we need the points.

Oxley got booked for time wasting near the end, bartley got booked for a nothing foul over at the West stand as you said which was seconds after the shocking Aberdeen tackle on Carmichael (I think) which should have been red and Malonga for taking his shirt off.

just a wee bit of trivia

This was the first time the clubs had met in this competition since 1998, when a Stevie Crawford goal knocked Aberdeen out.
And like then, the second tier Hibees would prevail.

Thanks for that link. Both goals are top quality! Malonga's effort is a goal of the season candidate and considering Cumming's goal was the first and more important, didn't he take it well.

Great result and a very good display by the team, AS got the tactics spot on and you can see the squad gelling better with every game being played, we need to keep up that tempo and that performance against the smaller Championship teams. We all called for width in the team but AS seems to like the modern way by playing wingbacks for the width, he now has cover for them which was a worry last season as both Gray and Stevenson tired near the end. 2 cracking goals too particularly Dom's brilliant solo effort. :thumbsup:
