Match Report

TTA report

Glover tapped in (20) after fine work by Brown but Thirds levelled (36) when Steadward was robbed ushering the ball out for a goal-kick. The ball was screwed in off the bar from the touchline. It was poor fare and with Glover limping on the wing a replay looked likely until Sharp crashed home a McGeachy pass (87).
