Review
New signings Edvaldsson and Latchford are the heroes on the night.
Edvaldsson scored with a glorious 25 yard shot past Alan Rough and then late in the game Latchford made a fine save from Somner to avoid extra time.
Caretaker manager Sean Fallon continues Jock Stein's fine run of League Cup semi final victories.
