Match Report

TTA report

It was obvious that the end of the season was approaching and nothing much happened in the first half. McKennan rode a few tackles and scored to make it 1-0 (56) but Saints were the better balanced team and equalised soon after. 3 goals in the last 15 minutes saw them well in command - a hooked shot, a glorious 18-yard drive and from a spilled Henderson save.
