(GSM) – An injury-time winner by Scott Boyd lifted First Division side Ross County to a 2-1 replay victory over Hibernian on Tuesday, booking a berth in the Scottish Cup semi-finals.

Scottish Premier side Hibs took the lead less than a minute into the second half when Anthony Stokes headed home a cross by Souleymane Bamba.

But County fought back to equalize in the 70th minute as Andrew Barrowman’s low cross found Garry Wood at the back post for a tap-in.

Then, with the tie seemingly headed for extra time, Boyd nodded a shot past Hibs goalkeeper Graeme Smith.

Ross County now advance to the semi-finals on 10 April when they will travel to Glasgow for a date with Celtic.
