Min 6: What did Nathan Cannon do to deserve that? Did the ref issue that yellow card, or did it just fall out of his pocket??
Min 7: Hugh Jass blocks but the ball is played back into the area...
        ...and Scott Reekie (FOR) smashes a volley over Hugh Jass and over the bar from an angle...

Min 58: Here it is..Top Binns (ANN) flicks on into the path of Three Kick...

Min 85: B. Cereus weaves his way through the Forfar defense......
        ...he checks the keeper's position...
        ...he'll take a chance on his own and ignore assistance from his flank......
        ...and the shot falls harmlessly into the arms of Zach Paris!?
Min 86: Here comes Three Kick (ANN)...
        ...getting onto Crabby Wilkins's ball behind the defense...
