Match Report

TTA report

Ledgerwood had some excellent saves. MacKenzie went close from 20 yards then Howitt missed a good chance when clean through. The only goal came in 68 minutes when Ledgerwood brilliantly parried a shot but couldn't recover in time to save the tap-in. Celtic probably just edged it on pressure.
