Match Report

TTA report

Brown hit the post from 25 yards early on but Thirds scored (23) when a shot squirmed under Steadward's body. It was 2-0 (33) and 3-0 (76) but a late rally saw Smith score (on his debut) then Sharp made for an exciting finish (84). An O'Donnell header was cleared off the line (89) but a draw would have been a steal.
