Halkirk Utd vs Golspie - cup final











Halkirk Utd beat Golspie Sutherland 2-1 in the North Caledonian cup in Brora today in perfect weather. Golspie took the lead early in the first half with a strong low sun behind them and this seemed to affect the Halkirk defence.  A scrappy first half ended 1-0 with hardly any goal attempts from either side. Halkirk took control early in the second half and a quick-fire double from Chris Sutherland settled the match.

The Golspie keeper had a couple of cracking full stretch saves to keep the score down. Golspie had a player sent off mid-way through the 2nd half as the game started to turn ugly and the yellow cards were flying around.

A first cup win for new manager Jock MacKay.
