Motherwell striker Moult had a feeling it was his day
Louis Moult said he had a feeling he would be the match-winner and it proved that way as his double sank Rangers in the second Betfred Cup semi-final.
The English striker took the Hampden glory in Motherwell's 2-0 win that sets up a shot at Celtic in next month's final.
He called the outcome "unbelievable" and added: "I thought about the game before and that's what I imagined in my head and thankfully it's come off.
"What a result and what a display from us today."
The Steelmen's talisman was man of the match at the national stadium in Glasgow, but has yet to commit his long-term future to Motherwell.
"I've said it many times: I've got to look for the best for my family," Moult told BT Sport.
"These people behind me (Motherwell fans) understand that and I think the football club understands that. I'll take each day as it comes so we'll see what happens."
Moult tangled with Rangers' Bruno Alves late on, and it appeared the Ibrox man might have been sent off for kicking out. Moult was arguably also lucky to avoid a red card for his reaction.
Alves surprisingly avoided punishment, but Moult was booked.
"He kicked me whilst I was down," Moult said. "I said to him and he actually agreed with me that he should have been booked as well as me.
"It was feisty out there and we've come out on top today, so thankfully it's gone in our favour."
Stephen Robinson, the Motherwell boss, said of his side's win: "It's fantastic. This club's waited a long time for a wee bit of glory and I thought we fought and battled, and I think we can play better on the ball.
"I didn't think we were great in the first half but it just shows the fighting qualities that we've got and the spirit of the camp and we deserved to win it."
Robinson said there was "no intent whatsoever" behind a second-half challenge from striker Ryan Bowman, who had already been booked, that left Rangers defender Fabio Cardoso with a bleeding nose.
And Robinson offered his take on the incident that saw him sent from the touchline, along with Rangers boss Pedro Caixinha.
"Pedro was trying to get one of my players sent off so I stuck up for him," Robinson said.
Caixinha said ahead of the game that it was one that Rangers had to win, but his verdict afterwards was: "It was a bad day for them. It was a bad day for the club."
Fresh doubt may now surround his position, and Caixinha was understandably downbeat after his team's dismal performance.
"It's disappointment more than frustration. We came here with high expectations," he said. "We were expecting to win, a different performance from the team.
"I am responsible. I am the leader. I am the one that prepared them. And we didn't manage to cope with the high expectations."
He added: "Especially after the second goal we just disappeared as a team. Overall it was a really poor performance from us. I am the only responsible.
"We were here to deliver to our fan base a presence in the final and we could not get it so once again I am responsible for that."
Regarding what the future holds for him, Caixinha said: "My future here at the club is to win on Wednesday."
That is when Kilmarnock visit Ibrox in the Ladbrokes Premiership.
"We need to show a different face totally," Caixinha said.
The Portuguese manager added that he would speak to chairman Dave King, who cannot have been impressed by the way Rangers missed out on a major final.
"Of course I will speak to him," Caixinha said. "He's here. He's the top man at the club. He's the face of the club. He knows in which direction he wants to take the club.
