Follow the action in the Scottish Championship, League 1 & 2 here.

And join us again tomorrow when we will find out who Hearts will face in the Scottish Cup final, when Celtic take on Rangers.

More from Hearts manager Robbie Neilson, who tells BBC Sportsound: "Credit to our players for managing to get through it, and credit to Hibs for battling really well, came back from two goals down, threatened even with 10 men, but that's a derby. Thankfully we came out on top.

"I played with Craig Gordon 20 years ago and he's matured unbelievable. He's now a leader of the group, He should be in the running for player of the year.

"We're guaranteed group stage football in Europe. It gives us money to invest. We won't go crazy, but taking that next step to allow us to do well in Europe but transition us into getting into Europe the year after and the year after and trying to grow this club."

Defender Craig Halkett is set to go to hospital for a scan, but Neilson says he is hopeful he will be fir the Scottish Cup final on 21 May.

Hibernian head coach Shaun Maloney tells BBC Scotland: “I'm extremely disappointed, gutted really for the players and the support.

"I think the performance was brilliant really, even with going 2-0, with the way we were playing at times it was really good.

"With 10 men, we still looked like the team that looked most likely to score, I’m incredibly proud but disappointed the performance didn't match the result. It’s by far the best performance since I’ve been here.

"We created more than enough in terms of dangerous opportunities, but we didn't defend the set-play or the counter-attack, I was really with how we played in that attacking area.

"We have to get to a point where we’re more clinical and until we get there will are going to feel more hurt than we are just now

"What I need to instil over the next four or five games, months, seasons - whatever it may be - is a level of performance, desire and physicality that we showed today.

"We need to instil that culture again and make sure we never feel like this again, particularly next season.

Hearts midfielder Andy Halliday tells BBC Scotland: "I'm just delighted for the boys, we just showed so much character in the second half.

"The first goal is what we worked on during the week, we worked on pressing high at goal kicks, and we managed nick it and big Ellis [Simms] who I thought was absolutely outstanding all day, what a strike that was. The second was a really well worked routine but you still need to fire it into the top corner.

"It's one hurdle to go, we know we're going to be facing a top side whoever wins the game tomorrow, but we've put ourselves right in with a chance."

Hearts manager Robbie Neilson tells BBC Scotland: “It was a tough game, credit to both sets of players, it was a real nailbiter until the end.

"We did well to get the second then we made an error to let them back in, but the players did well to hang in and we deserve to go through.

"There were a lot of strong tackles, a lot of opportunities, thankfully we came out on top.

“We had a number of chances, it’s just in those final moments we didn't take some of them, we’re glad to have taken two of them but on another day we could have had more.

“Now it will be about reinvesting the money we’re guaranteed with the European football today’s result has guaranteed.

On Craig Gordon's pivotal save a 2-1, he jokingly commented: "I thought it was bog-standard from Craig. I'd have expected him to catch it.

“I’d expect him to be in the running for player of the year in Scotland. The players are 100% behind him because he’s producing great saves behind them."

The Hibs end emptied out very quickly as Hearts fans rejoiced with a rendition of 'It's magic you know' and a few other unrepeatable chants.

It wasn't exactly plain sailing, with Hibs battling for every inch of turf, even after Joe Newell's foolish dismissal.

Two sensational strikes set up another Hampden date for Hearts, who last lifted the old trophy in 2012 after thrashing their Edinburgh rivals in the final.

It was much closer this time, but once again it's the maroon half of Edinburgh partying at Hampden.

What did you make of the 90 minutes? Let us know your thoughts.

And stick with us for a bit longer, we'll have reaction from both managers soon.

Hearts' Stephen Kingsley tells BBC Scotland: "We're delighted. It was a tough game and we knew that would be the case after last weekend.

"To be fair, I don't think we played at our best but we got the two early goals and then our lapse in concentration to concede made it interesting.

"We got the win in the end and that's all that matters."

On his stunning goal from a free-kick routine, he added: "It's something we'd worked on, more on the other side with Barrie [McKay], but I knew I'd have a wee chance if it was on that side.

"We had a wee chat before it and thankfully it went in."

Hearts striker Ellis Simms, who scored the opening goal, tells BBC Scotland: "It feels amazing. My family were in the stand, my friends as well, so I had to put a performance in like that because I owe a lot to them.

"I'll watch the game tomorrow [Celtic v Rangers]. We know whoever wins it'll be a good final."

With the cup final place comes another prize for Hearts.

They are guaranteed a Europa League spot whatever happens in the final, having already secured third place.

They will be parachuted into the Europa League play-off spot. Win, and it's Europa League group stage football. Lose, and it's the Europa Conference League group stage.

Either way, after a long wait for a return to Europe, Hearts are guaranteed a minimum of eight games next season.

It also means fourth and fifth place in the Scottish Premiership will now be Europa Conference League qualifying spots, with Dundee United, Ross County and Motherwell fighting it out over those two places.

Hearts are into the Scottish Cup final after yet another Hampden triumph over their Edinburgh rivals Hibs.

Ellis Simms thumped them into the lead and Stephen Kingsley's wonderful finish made it two.

But Hibs hit back through Chris Cadden, and will feel they dominated most of the remainer of the game, but the red card to Joe Newell for a second booking hurt their chances and they could not find an equaliser.

We're now into the ninth minute of stoppage time. Hearts fans are twirling their scarves, the cup final is seconds away...

This might be Hibs last chance. They have a free-kick in a dangerous area.

Sylvester Jasper's effort is punched away by Craig Gordon.

Craig Gordon goes down after a challenge from Elias Melkersen, who had already been penalised for pushing Toby Sibbick in the back.

Hearts are just eating up the time here as the clock ticks away.

Hibs make a late double change, with Sylvester Japer replacing James Scott, and Chris Mueller coming on for Ewan Henderson.

There are eight minutes added on, as 10-man Hibs chase an equaliser.

Elias Melkersen may not get a better opportunity than the one he's just had.

The cross falls for the Hibs forward at the front post but he heads wide.

Hearts' Cammy Delvin returns from injury to come on for these last four minutes plus whatever is added on, and there should be a fair amount of time still to go with Craig Halkett's injury taking up a lot of minutes.

Stephen Kingsley makes way.

Hearts' Taylor Moore goes into the book, and referee John Beaton is flashing the yellow cards about now.

Former Hibernian women's manager Grant Scott, a man who knows how to deliver knockout cup wins for the Easter Road club, isn't impressed.
