Hibernian brushed off a sensational Motherwell comeback to reach the Scottish Cup semi-finals following a penalty shootout at Easter Road. Motherwell scored twice in the final eight minutes to seal a 2-2 draw but Hibs triumphed 4-2 on spot-kicks to reach the last four for a fourth consecutive cup campaign. Hibernian looked to be heading to Hampden without much trouble when Jackson Irvine added to Christian Doidge’s opener with 10 minutes left amid offside suspicions. Mark O’Hara blazed over and Steven Lawless hit a post to put Hibs in the driving seat in the shootout before Motherwell goalkeeper Liam Kelly saved from Kevin Nisbet. The visitors levelled with two minutes left when Watt headed home Stephen O’Donnell’s looping cross.
