Match Report

TTA report

A 20-yarder and a converted cross put Motherwell well in command but down to 10 men after half-time and carrying a passenger, they began to toil. Shankly went close with 2 powerful drives then Glover's smashing drive (82) and Colgan's lob over the keeper (83) earned a point. A good game but unlucky Motherwell.
