Dundee seal progression after blowing away their Championship opponents in the first-half. Really, it was made far too easy for them thanks to some calamitous Airdrie defending that gifted them numerous chances and four simple goals. Lyall Cameron got two, Clark Robertson nodded in one, and Oluwaseun Adewumi got another before a more even second half. The Bairns are back at the top of the Championship, with the returning Scott Arfield hitting a hat-trick. The visitors had led 2-1 but lost Brian Graham to a second booking before half-time. A double from substitute Tete Yengi adds to Ryan Mc Gowan's opener to see Livingston comfortably through to the quarter-finals. Cove put up a good fight but were made to pay for spurning big opportunities to equalise at 1-0. The treble is still on for the Lions. .. Well, a treble. Adama Sidibeh A late, late goal for St Johnstone just as extra-time looked inevitable. Graham Carey lets fly from distance and it flicks off Adama Sidibeh's head, leaving Hamilton keeper Dean Lyness stranded. Simo Valakari's side are heading for the last eight.

St Johnstone 0-0 Hamilton Academical Makenzie Kirk could have had a hat-trick in this game. The striker ghosts into space in the Accies box again, but his glancing header goes just wide of the far post. This video can not be played WATCH: Kirk glances wide for St Johnstone Leon Mc Cann St Johnstone 0-0 Hamilton Academical What a block to deny St Johnstone. Stephen Duke-Mc Kenna has been lively down the right wing since coming off the bench, and he fires a cross into a dangerous area that falls to Makenzie Kirk's feet. He looks sure to find the back of the net, but Reghan Tumilty bravely throws himself at the shot and averts the danger. St Johnstone 0-0 Hamilton Academical A huge chance for Hamilton to hit the front. Oli Shaw, on as a substitute, springs the offside trap and goes through one-on-one with Saints keeper Andy Fisher, but can't find the corner, with the keeper pushing his shot away. Dundee 4-0 Airdrieonians The visitors win a free-kick right on the edge of the box - which looked like it might have been inside the box. Adam Frizzell curls the set-piece against the crossbar. Adam Frizzell then misses a sitter in front of goal, shooting tamely at Jon Mc Cracken after a fresh-air kick from one of his team-mates. Dundee then fly up the other end and Simon Murray pulls the ball out the sky with a deft touch and chips a volley onto the bar. Livingston 1-0 Cove Rangers That should be 2-0. Jamie Brandon's header from Robbie Muirhead's corner looks as though it's nestling in the bottom left corner but Nicholas Suman produces a full-stretch save to deny the Livingston captain. What a stop! St Johnstone 0-0 Hamilton Academical There's really not much happening at Mc Diarmid Park. Elliot Watt's free-kick from the right is easily cleared by the Hamilton defence. This video can not be played Highlights: St Johnstone 1-0 Hamilton Adama Sidibeh's late goal earned St Johnstone a battling victory against second-tier Hamilton Academical and a place in the Scottish Cup quarter-finals. With less than four minutes left, Graham Carey tried his luck from 30 yards out and fellow substitute Sidibeh reacted quickly to guide a header into the opposite corner, leaving Hamilton goalkeeper Dean Lyness stranded. The Championship side had lost their previous three matches, but started the game brightly with Nikolay Todorov twice coming close. Saints should have led before half-time, but Makenzie Kirk and debutant midfielder Jonathan Svedberg both headed straight at Lyness. After the break, Accies substitute Oli Shaw could not beat home goalkeeper Andy Fisher after being played clean through, with murmurs of discontent starting to come from the stands. However, the home side gradually took control as the half progressed and only some last-ditch Hamilton defending kept Kirk out. Then, just as extra-time looked inevitable, Sidibeh delivered the game's decisive moment, heading home to continue the hosts' recent resurgence - they have now won four games on the spin. Subscribe for St Johnstone updates St Johnstone manager Simo Valakari: "Good that [Adama Sidibeh] got his goal after a long wait. He has been working so hard. "Hamilton came with a game plan and didn't bend it at any minute. How we dealt with this tie was very good. "We kept pushing and in the end we get our result. I had a good feeling because we did the right things. " Hamilton Academical manager John Rankin: "It's a cruel way to lose a game. Over the piece we defended well and our structure was good. "It's a lucky deflection to go in and it's a sore one to lose. We had opportunities in the game. Oli makes the goalkeeper make a save - it's a big moment in the game. "Things aren't quite falling for us but the effort of the players can't be in question.
