After 3 played minutes, Earlston's Brian Pustak shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Cod Mcgaw came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Earlston reached it. Cod Mcgaw didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Lewis Munster went, in the 5th minute, to the upper right corner, 0-1 was the resulting score.
