Goalkeeper Craig Gordon says his Hearts side are "angry and disappointed" as they had two men sent off in their 2-1 defeat against Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup semi-final at Hampden. The Tynecastle club were reduced to 10 men in the first half when Michael Steinwender was shown a straight red card for hauling down Topi Keskinen. Hearts managed to hold on until extra-time where Cammy Devlin was shown a second yellow card and Hearts had to play the remainder of teh additional period with nine men.
"We're pretty angry and disappointed," the 42-year-old said. "I thought we were doing well, we were going to take it to penalties and take our chances there. "I felt that the boys in front of me were doing a great job.
Anything that came through I managed to save. It looked like we were going to take it to penalties and give ourselves a chance. "Unfortunately, the big moment comes from a second yellow card for Cammy to put us down to nine and we have to hang on from there.
"The second goal comes exactly from the position that Cammy had been defending on that left-hand side of midfield, dropping in front of the back five and the play straight through from where he would have been. "I'm really disappointed that was a second yellow card and disappointed not to get the chance to take the penalties. I feel a little bit let down by that, but that's the situation, we can't change it.
"The referee's made his decision and everybody feels a bit let down by that one, but he's got that split second to make that decision. He felt that was a yellow card, we obviously didn't.".
