    Hibernians Scottish cup finalclaim seemed unattainable at thehalf time whistle of the semi final.1st Division outfit Falkirk boasting a three goal advantage at the half time interval, sending some Hibs supporters home after a mere 30 minutes of action. As amiserable first half concluded, the dejected look on the fans faces remained, but in the dre sing room Pat Fenlon with Dominic Proctor Jersey his job very much on the line, was unyielded. He couldnt say precisely what he said in that dre sing room, according to his post match interview.And, with young Alex Harris audacious attempt finding the top right hand corner of the goal, it was the spark to an inspiration revival. Subsequent goals from the inspirational Eoin Doyle and a double from the prolific Leigh Griffiths sent Hibs to Hampden for the second consecutive season.With champions Celtic already qualifying for the Champions League tournament, reaching the Scottish Cupwas of no real significance to them, meaning Hibs are guaranteed a position in the Miami Hurricanes College Jersey Europa League Qualifiers and will enter as Cup runners up to the champions.The ScottishCup final was aone-sided encounter. Former Hibs striker Anthony Stokes ran the show in the 3-0 victory for the favourites. A mournful day was eased slightly as the Hibernian supporters showed a great act of defiance, outsinging the Celtic supporters after the final whistle, delaying the Celtic club anthem Youll never walk alone.

But this is the first timeHibs have qualified for the tournament since season 2010-2011 under the management of John Yogi Hughes, where Hibs were eliminated via a 6-2 annihilation in the hands of Slovenian outfit Reggie Wayne Jersey NK Maribor on aggregate. Hibs lost the first leg 3-2 at Easter Road but an unconvincing 3-0 away defeat ended any chance of another away trip for the Hibees.NK Maribor captain Marcos Tavares played a pivotal role in the victory over Dejan Vasiljevic Jersey HibsAs the saying goes Football fans are fickle and any sort of Europa League run will erase any bad memories of the cup final. New signings Liam Craig, Owain Tudor Jones may have an impact onHibs fate and could help achieve the ambitions of getting back into the competition on a regular basis again. This is where we belong and the Hibs fans must have the belief that there is to be many more happy memories in this renowned tournament despite thesubstandardleague performances.
