Match Report

TTA report

The teams took some time to adapt to the frozen surface but then it was end to end stuff. McParland opened the scoring with a header (14) after Cunningham had split the defence open then Duffy headed in a Yard cross (35). 3rd placed Dundee had a few chances but were too elaborate for the conditions.
