Dunipace V
Maryhill
1 - 1
24th April 2010
1 - 1
24th April 2010
A draw was a
fair
result after a
dull and
uninspiring
encounter in
which neither
side was able to
find any
sustained
fluency.
Maryhill
dominated in
terms of
possession for
almost the
entire opening
45 minutes
without
seriously
troubling
the vociferous
and entertaining
Tom Meighan in
the Dunipace
goal. Indeed,
the
keeper's irrational
claims for
offside
almost every
time the ball
crossed the
halfway line and
his non stop
eccentric commentary
on events
were among the
few highlights
of a game
seriously
lacking in
excitement or
incident . Chris
Calder in the
Maryhill goal
was virtually a
spectator for
long spells, but
apart from a
Kevin Howe shot
cleared off the
line by Graeme
McMillan, a 20
yard Michael
Tolland effort,
and a strong
penalty claim,
they posed no
real threat to
the home
defence.
Half Time -
Dunipace 0
Maryhill 0
A minute into
the second half
Dunipace went
ahead when Barry
Rodger forced
the ball over
the line after
the Maryhill
defence failed
to deal with a
cross from the
left. Dunipace
held the upper
hand for a spell
and an try from
Marc Pincombe
was well saved
by Chris Calder.
Unfortunately
the Hill keeper
had to retire
injured shortly
afterwards to be
replaced by
Kevin
Montgomery. It
was fairly
even for the
rest of the game
with little in
the way of
constructive
play from either
side. John
Cunningham
headed inches
pat from a Mark
Sideserf free
kick, and for
the home side
John McPhail
blasted over
the bar from 10
yards. It was a
poor performance
from Maryhill,
but they were no
worse than their
mid table
opponents, so
the equaliser in
72 minutes could
be considered
merited. Dunipace
defender Graeme
McMillan was
penalised for a
high
challenge inside
the box, and
Ryan Scobie did
his usual
effective job
from the penalty
spot to give
Maryhill a share
of the points.
