First through to the Meridianbet FA Trophy are Birkirkara who edged out Floriana 2-1 in the first of Wednesday night’s two semi-finals.
Pablo Gaitan fired past goalkeeper Mafoumbi to give B’Kara the lead mid-way through the first half.
B’Kara doubled their lead in the 67th minute when Maxuell Samurai cleverly chipped the ball over Mafounbi after a poor clearance by the Floriana keeper.
Ten minutes from time, Floriana pulled one back when Alexandros Kouros’s shot was deflected into his own net by Elvis Mashike.
Hibernians pulled off an unexpected win against newly crowned premier champions Hamrun to set up a clash with Birkirkara in the Meridianbet FA Trophy Final.
Jurgen pounced when Bjorn Kristensen’s powerful volley was blocked the Henry Bonello to give Hibs an early first half lead.
Hibs doubled that lead just before the break when Miullen was brought down in the box by Joseph Mbong and Lucal Viella sent Bonello the wrong way.
Hamrun rallied after the break with Rui Bruno’s goal late in the game giving hope to the champions but Hibs held out to set up a final against Birkirkara and maintain their hopes of a place in European football next season.
