The
Harmsworth crowd were treated to a classic Cup tie today, with David Alan
sending the Scorries through to the next round with the last kick of the ball.
The game had everything; excitement, controversy, two red cards, a screamer of
a free-kick and the inevitable last gasp winner.
Academy
started the game on the front-foot and within a minute Manson chipped the ball
over the top of the Huntly back-line. Macadie picked it up at the right hand
corner of the box but blazed his right foot attempt over the top of the Huntly
net.
Ritchie
Tayor thought he was in on goal for Huntly a minute later but Gunn threw his
body on the line with a great tackle to deny the striker a crack at goal.
Shearer was
the next to try his hand in the 22nd minute when he had a long-range
attempt but it flew straight into the arms of keeper Hastie.
Ritchie
Taylor and Colin Robertson combined with 24 minutes of the tie played to give
the visitors the opener. Robertson supplied the cross and Taylor ghosted in un-marked and nodded home past
an out-stretched Bokas.
0 - 1
Academy
should have levelled the tie 2 minutes later. Mackay provided a great ball into
the Huntly box and Weir was millimetres from getting a toe on it to knock it
into an empty net.
