Match Report

TTA report

Gourlay, back on leave from the forces, was a last-minute selection and his goals (15 and 44) earned the win - but it was lucky. Dumbarton had most of the play, were the better all-round team but lacked a punch up front. They hit the bar 3 times and scored with a pen (73) as tempers frayed.
