Match Report

TTA report

A thrilling, entertaining match on a quagmire of a pitch. Both sides had spells on top. Watson scored from close in when the keeper parried a McKennan free-kick then Johnstone saved a penalty but Falkirk scored just on half-time. Fine dribbling by McKennan set up Williamson for the winner (77).
