    Former Scotland winger on BBC Sportsound

    Hacken are a really composed and brave side. They play with no fear.

    On that performance tonight, Ibrahim Sadiq is worth double, maybe triple, the £3.5m valuation. He put Aberdeen to the sword.

    Ibrahim Sadiq, fair play.

    You were absolutely outstanding tonight.

    Two goals, three across the tie. If this is his last Hacken appearance, what a way to bow out.

    Hacken will take that all day, every day.

    Ryan Duncan chops down his man in the corner and the Swedish side will take their time over this.

    Aberdeen keep pushing and Bojan Miovski has a goalbound shot blocked.

    Leighton Clarkson's follow-up effort is deflected for a corner, which is punched away.

    Hacken clear another cross and Graeme Shinnie bursts on to it...

    'HAAAANDBAAALLL' the home crowd scream as his shot is blocked.

    Nope.

    Duk lofts one into the box and Ester Sokler rises.

    His header is a tough one and it drops just over.

    Eight minutes of added time.

    That gets a big roar from the home crowd.

    They still believe, do you?

    Nicky Devlin, steady.

    He dives into a dodgy looking tackle and rightly picks up a yellow.

    Nicky Devlin attempts to laser one into the far corner, but it's way off target in the end.

    Time running out for the Dons.
