Macron Scottish Junior Cup Second Round

KINNOULL FC 2

SALTCOATS VICTORIA 0

VICS travelled to Perth hoping to secure a berth in the third round of the showpiece event.

However they fell at the first hurdle in the national competition.

Initially the game seemed fairly evenly balanced. That said, Saltcoats did have an early opportunity to score but found themselves unable to take advantage.

Saltcoats were, at times, having the better of the play early in the game. Then an unfortunate defensive mistake by Saltcoats let home striker Ben Moffat through on visiting goalie Chris Wright and he slotted home in 25 minutes. Then two minutes later, Kinnoull scored again, once more at least partly down to defensive frailties from Saltcoats, Ben English this time netting.

In the second half Saltcoats huffed and puffed a lot without much attacking penetration.

The Seasiders wish their opponents all the best in the next round.
