LANARKSHIRE CUP FINAL – Braidhurst HS –v- Taylor HS

It was a case of third time unlucky for Braidhurst against Taylor in this cup final. On the two previous occasions the schools have met, Braidhurst came away with the spoils. However, this time, a more physical Taylor team came away as winners.

As the game wore on Braidhurst played a high temp game and pressed very high up the pitch but this resulted in a lot of space being created at the back. Taylor, counter attacking well, produced some lovely finishing and in spite of a see-saw match, the final score was a 5-3 win to Taylor High. At the referee’s final whistle, jubilant celebrations were sparked among the Taylor faithful.
