The game kicked off on a heavy pitch with any significant rain threatening to abandon the match should it come . The first chance came after 7 minutes when Alexander Miller was brought down a couple of yards outside the box and Kieran Anderson fired a free kick just past the right hand post with Kyle Allison rooted in the goals . A minute later the visitors opened the scoring when an Anderson shot broke out to ALEXANDER MILLER on the right hand side he ran forward and from just inside the box on the right hand side and fired a shot into the top left hand corner . A minute later Alexander Murray saw a shot blocked by the defence . On 14 minutes John Williams put a great ball through to Samuel Jones who ran into the box and crossed the ball but Nicholas Locke headed clear .Three minutes later a loose ball from Michael Linton was picked up by Sean Jamieson who fired a shot from 18 yards out that crashed off the cross bar and over . Penicuik hit the woodwork again four minutes later when John Macdonald tried a shot from thirty yards out which came off the bar and Wallace gathered the loose ball . A good move by Broxburn on 23 minutes saw Miller send a cross into the box to Alexander Murray who laid it back to Scott Richards who shot over the bar . The same players were involved three minutes later this time Richard’s shot was blocked . Just past the half hour mark Macdonald saw a shot deflected for a corner .Two minutes later a goalden chance was created for the hosts when a ball into the box was headed clear it fell to Lumbert Kataleza shot wildly over with the goal at his mercy .

A minute later a ball in from the left broke to Macdonald who’s shot took a deflection for a corner .Scott Richards sent Miller through on goal but the keeper did well to narrow the angle and save the danger . On fifty seven minutes after a conflict of opinions between the assistant and the referee with the referee giving Broxburn the throw in and the lassistant raising his flag the opposite way Darrell Young and Kyle Allison were booked for voicing their opinion with Young having been booked previously he was ordered off .With 66 minutes gone Miller set up Anderson who saw his shot straight at the keeper easily saved . A minute later at the other end Kataleza went down in the box claiming for a penalty but the referee was having none of it . Broxburn’s Alexander Miller made Allison in the hosts goal into a good double save to keep his side in the game . Miller saw another shot saved on 75 minutes as Broxburn tried to finish the game . On the 90 minute mark Kieran Anderson saw a free kick superbly saved and tipped over the bar .
