Oakley started strongly pushing Penicuik back and McATEER blasted home in the third minute. However Penicuik drew level three minutes later when McINTOSH bulleted home a header off a Baptie corner kick. Having got over the initial shock, Penicuik settled into their passing game and McIntosh saw his shot well saved by keeper Robertson. In the 20th minute, Jones had a chance, but sliced his shot wide. At the other end a deflected strike flashed along the front of the Penicuik goal but there were no takers for the home side. Then two consecutive corners to Penicuik saw the ball cleared off the line and then a McIntosh header flashed inches wide of the goal. In the 42nd minute, a Baptie free kick caught everyone out, but skimmed the crossbar. On half time, McIntosh was denied by Robertson who rushed from goal to smother the ball at the striker’s feet.


HALFTIME | Oakley United 1-1 Penicuik Athletic


Penicuik started the second half with determination, and a dangerous cross into the box was cleverly headed back to Robertson to clear the danger. In the 53rd minute, only a last gasp tackle prevented Penicuik taking the lead. Immediately afterwards, Hamilton was booked for a late tackle on McAteer. Then, with the pressure building, an excellent move by Penicuik saw keeper Robertson save a McCrory-Irving strike from eighteen yards. In their next attack, Penicuik should have taken the lead, but McIntosh headed a Ponton cross over the bar. On the hour mark, came a blitz of goals by Penicuik. McCrory-Irving drilled the ball into the penalty area and the unfortunate STEVENSON put the ball into his own net. Two minutes later, McINTOSH hooked home a Forbes cross. Then in the 67th minute the game was put to bed with the goal of the game. McCrory-Irving picked up a deep cross from the left, laid the ball back to JONES at the edge of the box, and he blasted the ball past Robertson. Penicuik continued to dominate the game until the last few minutes when Oakley created a couple of chances. Firstly Allan had a shot that beat Cordery but went just wide of the post and then Cordery had to rush from goal to deny McAteer.
