Penicuik
travelled
to
Carmuirs
Park
to
take
on
unbeaten
Camelon
Juniors
and
in
the
2nd
minute,
Thomson
rose
above
the
home
defence
to
head
a
corner
kick
straight
into
the
hands
of
keeper
Gray.
Then
a
free
kick
to
Camelon
was
curled
round
the
defensive
wall
but
wide
of
the
post.
Minutes
later,
the
same
player
blasted
the
ball
high
and
wide
of
the
target.
In
the
25th
minute,
a
driven
cross
by
Forbes
was
deflected
on
to
the
crossbar
and
out
for
a
corner
kick.
On
the
half
hour,
a
flowing
move
saw
a
last
gasp
tackle
prevent
Viola
from
scoring.
In
Penicuik’s
next
attack,
keeper
Gray
had
to
rush
from
goal
to
nip
the
ball
from
Stewart.
Just
before
half
time,
following
another
corner
to
Penicuik,
a
powerful
strike
by
Baptie
whistle past the keeper’s right hand post.
Half time: Camelon 0 Penicuik 0
Ten
minutes
into
the
half
and
a
shot
from
the
left
wing
dipped
over
the
Penicuik
crossbar.
At
the
other
end,
from
a
Penicuik
corner
kick
Somerville’s
glancing
header
crashed
back
off
the
crossbar
and
was
thumped
clear.
Camelon
took
the
lead
in
the
62nd
minute
when
McKENZIE
got
past
Forbes
to
slot
the
ball
into
the
far
right
corner
of
the
net.
Two
minutes
later,
Devlin
had
a
chance
for
Penicuik
but
his
shot
was
easily
dealt
with
by
Gray.
Penicuik
were
now
working
hard
for
the
equaliser,
and
had
a
strong
shout
for
a
penalty
when
Somerville’s
shot
appeared
to
strike
the
hand
of
a
defender
as
he
lay
on
the
ground.
Immediately
afterwards,
Viola
weaved
his
way
past
two
defenders
only
to
be
tripped
on
the
edge
of
the
box
but
the
referee
was
unmoved.
In
the
84th
minute,
Devlin
set
Kateleza
free.
He
crossed
the
ball
into
the
box
and
Somerville
was
inches
away
from
making
contact.
With
only
minutes
left,
Penicuik
earned
another
corner
and
Young was denied by keeper Gray’s fingertip save.
Final Score: Camelon 1 Penicuik 0
