STEPHEN O'DONNELL was devastated when a torn hamstring deprived him of his first Hampden semi-final last month.
Not only that but with Paul McGinn crocked too, he was in line to lead the Steelmen into battle with Rangers at the National Stadium.
It wasn't to be as the 32-yearold suffered the agonising injury in the first half of Well's 2-1 win over Dundee United just four days before that Premier Sports Cup defeat to the Ibrox side.
But O'Donnell has bounced back rapidly and is determined to force his way back into the side ahead of the next chance to head for Hampden.
He said: "I tore my hamstring.
