Match Report

TTA report

Duffy got the opener from a McBride pass (14) - rather against the run of play - then he scored again 2 minutes later from close in, both from free-kicks. It was comfortable by early in the second half when McBride headed in a corner (52). There was no way back for a poor Saints side. McKinnon had a quiet debut. A good win. Up to 6th.
