Review
Dunfermiline started well and attacked Fallon's goal. In the 11th minute McNeill headed a ball back under pressure from Dickson. The ball bounced off of Fallon then off of Mcneill's knee and into the net.(Some reports give Dickson the goal). Jinky was giving Lunn a run around on the right wing. In the second half Celtic went all out in attack confident that McNeill could marshall the Dunfermiline attack and Celtic defense. Despite all the attacks and shots Celtic could not find a way though.
