Match Report

TTA report

“Two unexciting but hardworking sides” (ET). A goal by O'Hara (75) when he was set up by Clark separated the sides evenly who were matched, even in squandered chances. Kilmarnock should have taken the lead just after h-t but the ball was fired straight at Rough. A draw would have been fairer however.
