In the opening minute, a neat interchange between Montgomery and McCallum saw McCallum cross the ball into the box where
Somerville chested the ball down and cut the ball back across the box but his cross was cut out and the danger cleared. At the
other end a looping Broughty header was comfortably gathered by Easton. Then an excellent driving run by Barr set up
Montgomery who drilled a low cross into the six yard box, but Lannen was on hand to deflect the ball away for a corner.
Penicuik took the lead in the 6th minute when a Jancyzk cross was headed on by McCallum to GAY who slammed the ball into
the far bottom corner of the net. Then in the 11th minute, as McLellan drove into the box, he was tripped by Montgomery and
McCORD converted the spot kick. In the 24th minute, Roy broke past Montgomery and Jancyzk only to drag his shot wide of
the goal. In the 29th minute, a powerful left foot strike by Jancyzk was tipped over the bar by keeper Ross. Two minutes later,
Noble found himself in a position to go for goal, but his effort went high over the bar. Just before half time, a powerful Hume
header off a corner kick was blocked by Lawson.
Half time: Penicuik 1 Broughty 1
Six minutes into the half and Gay attacked the Broughty defence from the right wing and saw his shot turned round the post by
keeper ross, but a goal kick was awarded much to the disbelief of the Penicuik players. Penicuik were now dominating the play
with Gay becoming more and more influential and in the 55th minute an excellent Gay cross saw Somerville’s diving header
well saved by Ross. Two minutes later Broughty were forced into conceding a corner when Blair cut out a dangerous
Montgomery cross. Then Blair was again in action heading a McCallum cross over his own bar. In a rare Broughty attack,
Buchan blasted the ball high over the Penicuik bar. In the 65th minute, following a free kick to Broughty, McLellan was denied by
an excellent save by keeper Easton. In Penicuik’s next attack, another testing cross by Gay caused havoc in the Broughty
penalty area but the defence held firm. In the 68th minute Noble let fly from 30 yards, but his strike went a foot wide of the
upright. With Penicuik piling on the pressure, everyone in the ground thought they had scored off a corner kick, but the ball went
past the post and nestled in the side netting. In the 71st minute, another great cross by Gay into the box saw McCallum get to
the ball but couldn’t believe his eyes as keeper Ross pulled off the save of the match. Minutes later, it was Easton’s turn to get
in on the action when he had to rush from goal and dive at the feet of McConnachie to clear then danger. In the 80th minute, a
McCallum free kick beat the defensive wall but went straight into the arms of Ross. Just before the final whistle, Gay drove at
the visitor’s defence and let fly only to see his effort deflected away for a corner kick. Two minutes into injury time and a last
gasp effort by Broughty almost brought a goal but the Penicuik defence stood strong.
