Westdykes CC v Glenvale Whites
Scottish Cup Round 4
Difficult one today against the top 2009 team in Aberdeen.
The boys worked very hard from start to finish, we went in at half time only 1-0 despite Westdyes having many chances to increase their lead. Our #1 James made some great saves along with some good defending.
In the second half we made some changes and asked the players to press and go man for man all over the park and take this tie to Westdykes.
We did really well for a spell and were firmly in the game despite not really troubling their keeper.
Around 15 mins to go Westdykes stretched their lead to 2-0 with a good strike from outside the box.
Westdykes began to stretch us all over the park and showed their ability scoring 2 quick goals in the last minutes to make it 4-0.
Coaches MoM was our goalkeeper James McKechnie who made some wonderful saves to keep us in the game at times. He didn’t deserve to lose 4 goals.
Big thanks to Westdykes for their hospitality from start to finish. They were very hospitable and the players were a credit to themselves and their club. Best of luck for the rest of the season.
Big thanks to everyone for helping reach this this stage in the Scottish Cup, it’s been a learning curve and an experience for all of us.
