For the third time this season Penicuik played Camelon Juniors having won on the two previous occasions. However it was the visitors who were first to threaten when Allison broke down the right and only a timely intervention by Hume prevented his cross from getting into the danger area. In the 11th minute a free kick to Camelon picked out Bell but his weak header was easily gathered by Easton. Five minutes later, a dangerous cross by Somerville was cut out comfortably by keeper Kane. In the 26th minute, Camelon almost took the lead when Allison’s acrobatic overhead kick was turned away by Easton. On the half hour, Lough came close from just inside the box, but his effort whistled over the bar. In Penicuik’s next attack, a Somerville cross was headed wide by S Scott. In the 41st minute, following consecutive corner kicks to Camelon, there were loud claims for a penalty when Docherty’s powerful strike was blocked inside the box, but referee Anderson was unmoved.
HALFTIME | Penicuik Athletic 0-0 Camelon Juniors
From the restart Penicuik attacked up the left but Barr’s deep cross was easily gathered by Kane. In the 51st minute, a miskick by Montgomery saw the ball fall to Taylor, but he shot well wide of the target. Minutes later, the same player had an even better chance, but his finishing left a lot to be desired as he hooked the ball high over the bar. In the 64th minute, a driving run by Barr set up S Scott. He smashed the ball at goal and Kane beat the ball away. McCallum volleyed the ball back in and Lough flicked it on to Somerville, but his effort went inches wide of the post. The visitors took the lead in the 74th minute when Taylor dispossessed Lough and set up O’BRIEN who coolly slotted home from ten yards. Penicuik seemed to wake up after that and ten minutes later equalised. S Scott turned his marker and played the ball out to Hume on the right wing. He crossed the ball to the back post where LOUGH rose above the defence to power home a header into the top right corner of the net with keeper Kane rooted to the spot. Penicuik piled on the pressure in an effort to get the winner but strong defending by Camelon denied the home side. Into injury time and keeper Easton had to be on his toes to save a Camelon free kick. In the 93rd minute a final chance fell to Penicuik when Lough’s glacing header off a Jancyzk corner kick went a foot wide of the target.
