Match Report

TTA report

Falkirk took the lead with a deflected free-kick (35) but one of the softest penalties of the season allowed Husband to equalise (54). Falkirk were always that bit more purposeful and compact and when a corner hit off someone and went over the line (80) it proved to be a scrappy winner.
