Review
Early play was all Celtic's with McVittie and Collins going close and Sharkey playing well. Fernie scored the opening goal on 25 minutes. Two minutes from half time Gardiner beat Evans and levelled the score. Collins and McVittie swapped positions at the start of the second half. A Tully attack saw Weir head against the bar and McVittie was there to prod home the rebound. Aitken got an equaliser in the last minute of the game.
