Min 3: Period of head tennis in the middle of the pitch...

Min 6: Jota (CEL) weaves on the edge of the box...

Min 9: Joe Jordan (FAL) whips in a decent looking cross to the six yard box...

Min 37: Terrible Bairns defending as Steve Clarke  gave it away to Gavi (CEL)...
        ...his poor shot was parried by Angus Gunn...
        ...but it came back to Francis Turley and his shot took a deflection over the bar.
Min 45: Aaron Hickey on for Anthony Ralston(DF)...
