SCOTTISH SHIELD SEMI FINAL

Braidhurst (Under 14’s) 3 Peter the Apostle 0

Braidhurst eased into the final of the Scottish Shield with a comfortable 3-0 win over Peter the Apostle from Clydebank.

After some initial pressure Braidhurst took an early lead when Dylan Falconer got his head onto a looping Jake Hastie corner from the right. It was another Hastie corner that led to Johnny McCabe doubling the score line minutes later as he finished at the back post.

With their centre backs dominant Braidhurst controlled the rest of the half going in with a 2-0 lead. After the break Peter the Apostle managed to get back into the game gaining some midfield possession but failed to turn any of it into clear cut chances.

After a succession of near misses from Darren Wilson, Andrew McNulty and Dylan Falconer it was left to Jake Hastie to make the game for the side in red making it 3-0 with about 15 minutes later.

Braidhurst can now look forward to facing either their old foes from last year Craigmount or St Andrews Academy in the final.
