The home side were on the front foot from the start and early on  Steven Dolan shot well wide with better options left and right of him . On eleven minutes Kyle Turnbull sent a free kick into the box but Jordan Wright headed well wide .Four minutes later Wright and Dawson got in each others way with Les Dawson shooting weakly past the right hand post . Broxburn’s first attack saw Jack Beesley done well getting down the right hand side but his ball into the box missed all . With twenty minutes on the clock Dawson had a chance but headed past the right hand up right . Cameron Ross put a ball across to Greg Binnie on 35 minutes with the keeper saving at the expense of a corner . John Grant sent a shot wide of the target with five minutes left of the half . A minute later a free kick in from the left saw Jon Tully with a free header go wide left . Sauchie had the last chance of the half in the last minute when a corner in to the back post saw Jordan Wright head over from  four yards out .

The second have saw a bit more life from the visitors and Cameron Ross made room for a shot on 48 minutes that was saved . A minute later a corner into the box saw Nicholas Locke head over . Two minutes later Ross Nimmo saw an effort from the right hand side of the box go just wide left of the target . At the other end Simon white a minute later done well down the left before turning inside but shot wide right . The opening goal came on 55 minutes when Jack Beesley slipped on the greasy surface leaving White with the ball who passed to McTaggart who laid it off to JORDAN WRIGHT  to have the easiest of tap ins . It got worse for the visitors three minutes later when  a corner into the box saw JON TULLY get an unchallenged header which he steered into the back of the net . Broxburn tried to get back in the game in 70 minutes when a ball in from the left saw Nimmo pass to Miller who in turn gave the ball to Locke who’s shot was saved . Conor Kelly saw a overhead kick saved on 77 minutes .  With Broxburn chasing the game they got caught on counter attack with Dolan getting down the right and putting the ball into the box where SIMON WHITE had all the time in the world to roll the ball into the net  on 80 minutes . The last effort came from Broxburn with Ross Nimmo getting into the box but Darren Dolan in the hosts goals blocked his ball into the danger area .
