Scottish Cup semi-finalists St Johnstone follow up Rangers win with contract for striker Stevie May
The striker had been substituted by the time the drama kicked off in extra-time and the spot-kick shoot-out, but May wants to be at the heart of things in Perth for years to come - 2023, at least.
After penning a new two-year deal at McDiarmid Park he said: “I'm absolutely thrilled to have signed a new two year contract. St Johnstone is where my heart is and it's where I've enjoyed my most successful times in football.

"After defeating Rangers last night we are in the semis of the Scottish Cup and have given ourselves a chance of creating some more history.
"Everybody is buzzing and the atmosphere is first class. The spirit in the squad is amazing and it was there for all to see in the way we got our victory against Rangers,” he told the club website.
May has hit 10 goals for Callum Davidson’s side this season, and added: "The manager has built something very special this season and I'm proud to be a part of it all. He and his backroom staff have us believing in every single game."We will now try and finish the last few games of the season in the best way we can and, on a personal level, to have my contract situation sorted out is great news. This is where I want to be."
