Match Report

TTA report

AET. Ibrox. “Boredom in Ibrox semi-final“ (GH). Apart from a Dundee shot that hit the post in extra time, the goalkeepers were equal to everything. Neither team deserved to win and there were only short spells of excitement. MacKenzie, Davidson and the two Smiths were exempt from criticism.
