15 mins of the second half gone and no more goal scoring chances to speak of thus far. Clach have made their first change with the highly rated Kyle MacLean coming on for Allan Pollock.

15 minutes of the game left and it looks as if this will be a nail-bitter to the end. Neither team can add to the scoring.

Clach go on the attack with Gordon Morrison driving up the wing before crossing to substitute Kyle Mac:ean in acres of space. Just as he is about to pull the trigger Grant Campbell made a great blocking tackle to send the ball for a corner.

Academy make a change with Ross Allan coming on for Stevie Cunningham.

Clach take the lead. A short corner is taken that is fired into the back post. The ball reached the Clach right-back Colin Williamson and he bundled it into the net.

2 – 1

Things are hotting up and Craig Shearer and Steven MacDonald both get booked by referee Mather.

Into the dying minutes and Clach go down to 10 men when Steven MacDonald picked up his second yellow card.

With what can only be seconds left deep into injury time Academy grab the equalizer. A thrown in from the right reaches Craig Shearer and he flicked the ball to the near post where David Allan dived in amongst a ruck of players and got his head to the ball to glance it into the back of the net past the right hand of keeper Hastie.

2 – 2

With no time left on the clock referee Mather blows the full time whistle and Academy earn the re-play at the Harmsworth Park next weekend to the joy of the travelling Scorrie's support.
