Joe Hart: Former Manchester City and England No.1 was a virtual spectator in the opening period. The goalkeeper would have been perfectly entitled to ask for more protection from his back-line for Hanlon's goal. He spread himself superbly well to jab out a leg when it mattered to deny Kevin Nisbet and at the death to rescue his side. 8

Josip Juranovic: The Croatian reverted to right-back as the man of the moment Anthony Ralston missed out on the showpiece. Picked up the games first yellow card with a tactical foul on Martin Boyle after 35 minutes. Curled a free-kick high and handsome just before the break. He looks assured and composed most of the time but is prone to lapses with his passing and distribution. 7

Carl Starfelt: The Swede recovered sufficiently from being banjoed on the nose by Ross County hitman Jordan White and should have given Celtic the lead on 23 minutes but failed to make decent contact with a glorious headed opportunity from a set-piece. He didn't exactly cover himself in glory as Hibs grabbed the initiative and endured a couple of shaky moments. 6

Cameron Carter-Vickers: The USA internationalist was absolutely solid. He is the epitome of a no-nonsense defender and covered for his defensive partner early in the second half as Hibs threatened to burst through on goal. The on-loan Spurs man is fats becoming a real hero among the Celtic faithful. 8

Greg Taylor: The Scotland full-back got the nod in place of Liam Scales and tested the hands of Matt Macey with a low drive after a quarter of an hour. Enjoyed a fine game at full-back as he linked well with Mikey Johnston all game and was a real driving force and was full of energy and running. 7

Callum McGregor: The captain orchestrated things in the engine room and pulled the fine strings. He kept a cool head and showed real leadership qualities within seconds of Hibs taking the lead and fed Kyogo with an exquisite pass that allowed the Japanese star to equalise. 8

David Turnbull: The midfielder pulled up midway through the first half with what looked like yet another hamstring injury for Celtic and Ange to contend with. 3

Tom Rogic: The Wizard of Oz came back into the first-team fold at the expense of Israeli midfielder Nir Bitton. Hibs plan was to thwart the influential midfielder at every turn and disrupt his flow. He floated a delicious chip which was turned inches wide by Macey on the hour mark. He always looked capable of producing something that could open the Hibs defence and his quick thinking free-kick released Kyogo to make it 2-1. 8

Liel Abada: The Israeli was shunted back to his accustomed wide right berth and copped a real sore one inside three minutes from Lewis Stevenson. He didn't see as much servicer as Johnston did on the other flank but put in a shift for his boss. 7

Kyogo Furuhashi: The Japanese bhoy was the surprise inclusion in Ange's starting X1 as the talismanic striker made the cup final cut. He didn't let his manager down. The striker produced two sumptuous finishes to earn the man of the match performance. He just comes alive in the final third and his two goals were out of the top drawer. 9

Mikey Johnston: The natural winger was favoured instead of Adam Montgomery wide on the left. He was linking well with Taylor and unleashed a decent effort at goal on 13 minutes. He was a livewire all afternoon and saw a lot of the ball and his decision making at times could be better but enjoyed a decent outing before going off injured for Moffat on 83 minutes. 7

Substitutes:

Nir Bitton: The Israeli came on for David Turnbull on 23 minutes and added steel and composure in the engine room and allowed McGregor to be more effective in an offensive way. He is enjoying a purple patch in his Celtic career right now. 7

Anthony Ralston: The midweek hero came on for Taylor on 75 minutes. 3

Owen Moffat: Came on for Kyogo with seven minutes left on the clock. 2

Liam Scales: Given a seven-minute run out in place of Johnston. 2
