League Cup - Round Two Roundup

Hibs progressed through to the Quarter Finals after Morton clawed back twice to force the tie to extra time. Hibs appeared to be in cruise control after goals from Scott Allan and Josh Vela put the Edinburgh side 2-0 up after 32 minutes. A Bob McHugh header gave Morton a route back into the match. On the stroke of half-time, Lewis Stevenson got it all wrong, bundling a Bob McHugh header into his own net to send the two sides in level. 

Hibs again took control of the match in the second half thanks to a goal from Klorian Kamberi, rounding the on-rushing debutant Danny Rogers and slotting home. The Ton rallied late, with a Lewis Strapp long throw finding its way into the net after cannoning off former Scotland international Steven Whittaker. 

Hibs then took the lead in extra time as Kamberi got his second of the match in controversial circumstances, with Morton claiming a foul on Cameron Salkeld in the build up. David Hopkin was sent to the stand for his protests. Hibs sealed their place in the last eight of the tournament with a Christian Doidge goal at the death.
