The game started at a frenetic pace, and Penicuik were the first to threaten when two Penicuik shots
were blocked and cleared. Immediately afterwards, Harvey headed on a cross into the box but Killin
rushing in saw his header brilliantly saved by Wilson. In the 10th minute Campbell rose above the
Buffs defence only to head wide of the target. In the 21st minute, Kilwinning’s first real threat on goal
saw Mitchell drag his shot wide of the upright. In Penicuik’s next attack, Harvey was tackled late, but
the referee allowed advantage, and Brigain got past his marker to slot home. However after
consulting his assistant, the referee chalked the goal off for offside. On the half hour, Penicuik forced
a series of corners, but the Kilwinning defence held firm. Five minutes later, desperate defending at
another Penicuik corner kick saw a net bound shot cleared and the rebound blasted over the bar. In
the 37th minute, a free kick to Penicuik was taken short and crossed into the box by Montgomery, the
first shot was blocked and the rebound cleared by the outstretched boot of keeper Wilson.

In the 50th minute, following a free kick to Penicuik, Harvey knocked the ball on to Brigain who
chested the ball down, turned and shot, but straight into the arms of Wilson. Two minutes later,
Kilwinning broke quickly up the right when Sloan set Brown free and his low cross across the box
was slammed home by MITCHELL. In the 59th minute both Killin and Harvey had strikes on goal
block for a corner kick. Kilwinning were controlling the game at this point with Penicuik trying hard to
get back into it. In the 70th minute, A Kilwinning corner kick deceived everyone and almost went
directly into the net, but the Penicuik defence recovered well to clear the danger. Then in the 82nd
minute Maxwell went for an early bath after receiving his second yellow card after fouling Killin. Two
minutes later, with Penicuik pressing hard, a Campbell header hit the crossbar and went over for a
goal kick. However Penicuik were not to be denied and scored a deserved equaliser when, a neat
one two between Killin and Harvey saw him lay the ball into the path of BARR who blasted the ball
past Wilson. In the 90th minute a cross to the back post was headed powerfully by Walker, but
Wilson pulled off the save of the game to turn the ball away for a corner. Then Walker was fouled in
the box just as he was about to strike and a penalty was awarded. Lewis was red carded for the
offence. However keeper Wilson pulled off another great save to save Walker’s spot kick. The replay
takes place at Penicuik on Saturday 9th October.
