Bo'ness won their
final group match of
this season's League
Cup, though again
they were less than
convincing against
their South region
League opponents.
Bo'ness had most of
the play in the
first half and went
ahead in 17 minutes
when Muir accepted a
short free kick and
put through to
Willie Irvine
who shot passed
keeper Kirkham.
Bo'ness created
further chances but
were unable to
extend their lead
though it was not
all one way traffic.
However when Sauchie
got up the park it
was their final ball
that let them down,
but just before the
interval they had a
great chance to draw
level when Chris Zoc
put Michael Daly
through but his chip
went over the bar.
In a
reshuffle, Stewart
Kenny came on for
Gary Smith after
half time but the
first twenty minutes
of the second half
were very scrappy
with both teams
incapable of keeping
the ball for any
length of time.
Sauchie looked the
likelier team at
this point but it
was Bo'ness who
scored the winner
with three minutes
remaining. The ball
was played forward
and Willie Irvine's
first time pass
found Stewart
Kenny who
controlled before
hitting an angled
shot into the bottom
corner of the net.
Willie Irvine has
had the opportunity
to see what players
can do but with
Stuart MacKay and
Steven McGlinchey
still to come in
along with new
signing Lee
Docherty, he will be
hoping for some
improvement.
