Match Report

TTA report

Airdrie had some early chances but ably supported by the half-backs, it was a personal triumph for Sharp who scored all 3 goals - a run and shot past 2 defenders (24), header from a McSpadyen corner (55) and a mazy run and rising shot off the crossbar (84). Airdrie fought till the end but were second best on the day.
