Match report from The Scotsman, 13th February 1922

[…] The Celtic and Third Lanark had a much closer tussle at Cathkin park, Glasgow, than was anticipated. Third Lanark held the visitors throughout the first half. Their defence was severely tested, but nothing that the Celtic forwards could do was enough to break down dour opposition of Brownlie, McCormack, and Orr. Play veered in favour of the visitors in the second half, when the only goal of the game was scored by McInally. The result was a correct reflex of the play, the Celtic being, if anything the stronger side in the first half, and superior after the interval.
