Braidhurst Under 14s braved stormy weather conditions on Thursday to play their Semi-Final of the Lanarkshire Cup away to Chryston High School. The first half was a scrappy affair with both teams struggling to cope with the conditions, but the visitors eventually went in front thanks to a left-footed strike from Alistair Small. Stuart McKinstry then doubled their lead soon after, firing past the keeper at the second time of asking, which gave Braidhurst a 2-0 lead going into half-time. The second half was much the same as the first, but after a Nathan Spence pass put Robbie Shanks through on goal, a neat finish past the keeper put the game beyond doubt. The game ended 3-0 to Braidhurst, with Mr Clarke and Mr O’Toole delighted at the outcome as well as the effort that the boys put in. They are now into the Cup Final where they will meet the winners of St. Maurice’s HS and Taylor HS.
