Min 0: East Stirlingshire opens up with a 4-3-3 L while the BRE will play a 4-4-2 N.
Min 0: Today's referee is Oli Sigurjonsson (STRONG/LOOSE).
Min 1: William Saliba (EST) swings a ball in to the Brechin City box...
        ...but the presence of Kevin McHattie (BRE) means it is easily cleared.

        ...but the presence of Troy Hawke (BRE) means it is easily cleared.

        ...only to see his shot blocked by Troy Hawke (BRE).

Min 23: George breaks up the play in the middle of the park...
        ...and puts Trossard on the attack down the right...

Min 36: Period of head tennis in the middle of the pitch...

        ...that thunders past David Raya's outstretched arm...
        ...and just wide of the goal.
Min 42: Grady McGrath  almost penetrates Shire's sheilds with a dazzling volley...
        ... a little more power and Joao Balde would have lost his well placed foot.?
