How did Hibs miss that?
A golden opportunity for Paul Hanlon to score his second of the final and equalise.
Kevin Nisbet's header comes off the face of the post, it just evades strike partner Christian Doidge but in the path of Hanlon, but the centre-half side foots well over from 10 yards.

Celtic are already playing for time. Bit early for that as they retain possession in the corner with five minutes of normal time left.

GOAL Hibernian 1-2 Celticpublished at 72mins
Kyogo Furuhashi
What a finish!
The ball over the top of the Hibs defence ends in a Kyogo Furuhashi goal for a second time at Hampden.
A quickly taken free kick from Tom Rogic picks out the Japan striker and, whereas the last time he fired it under Matt Macey, he this time clips it over the advancing goalkeeper to send the Celtic fans into raptures.

Kevin Nisbet probably should put Hibs back in the lead as he pounces on a slip from Carl Starfelt before turning the Celtic centre-half inside out twice.
However, the Scotland striker is foiled by the legs of outrushing goalkeeper Joe Hart.
