Min 0: East Stirlingshire opens up with a 4-3-3 N while the Pars will play a 4-3-3 N.
Min 0: Today's referee is Mark Findlay (HOMER/LOOSE).
Min 1: Stellarinho (EST) swings a ball in to the Dunfermline box...
        ...but the presence of Robbie Fraser (DFA) means it is easily cleared.
Min 2: Zubimendi (EST) escapes the offside flag...
        ...as a ball is played up to him...
        ...but Ewan Otoo (DFA) muscles out the big striker before he can control.
Min 5: Now the ball comes to Anton Dowds (DFA)...
        ...Victor Wanyama has space on the left and Anton Dowds tries to play him in...
        ...only for Frank Ribery (EST) to stick out a boot and just intercept.
Min 9: Neil Lennon (DFA) puts in a cross...
        ...but Maldini Kacurri (EST) clears with ease.
Min 24: Elneny (EST) fouls Chris Kane...
        ...and he gets a yellow card by the looks of things.
Min 28: Anton Dowds (DFA) tries a wildly ambitious effort from distance...
        ...which trundles back to David Raya in a restful Sunday type of way.
Min 29: Anton Dowds (DFA) escapes the offside flag...
        ...as a ball is played up to him...
        ...but Maldini Kacurri (EST) muscles out the big striker before he can control.
Min 30: East Stirlingshire gives the ball away and Anton Dowds gathers...
        ...he comes in from the left flank unchallenged...
        ...he unleashes an unstoppable drive that ends up in the top corner of David Raya's net...
        ...the keeper had no chance GOAL!!...
        ...a superb play and the early lead for the Pars...
        ...score now: EST 0 - DFA 1
Min 33: Kai Havertz's (EST) goal-bound effort is blocked brilliantly by Kieran Ngwenya (DFA)...
        ...and it loops up and into the hands of Robbie Thomson.
Min 36: Maldini Kacurri's header back towards his own goal is latched on to by Chris Kane (DFA)...
        ...but the flag goes up for offside!...
        ...it was a Shire man who played it on - ludicrous decision. 
Min 45: Marquinhos on for Stellarinho(FW)...
        ...Marquinhos will play SW.
Min 45: Miles Lewis-Skelly on for Zubimendi(MF)...
        ...Miles Lewis-Skelly will play MF.

Min 53: Period of head tennis in the middle of the pitch...
        ...finally a ball is played along the ground towards Anton Dowds (DFA)...

Min 66: Pars build down the left...
        ...Anton Dowds sends a cross to the middle...

Min 74: Neil Lennon (DFA) and George Oakley break for Dunfermline...
        ...George Oakley looks to have found space into which to recieve Neil Lennon's through ball...
        ...but some fantastic defending from Marquinhos (EST) sees the danger snuffed out.
Min 78: After a brief skirmish at midfield, Ewan Otoo is awarded a yellow card!...
        ...the official is clearly playing to the home crowd on this occasion!?
Min 79: Maldini Kacurri opts to attack the goal on his own...
        ...Kieran Ngwenya greets the intruder at the gate and strips him of the ball.?
Min 80: Chris Kane almost penetrates Shire's sheilds with a dazzling volley...
        ... a little more power and Marquinhos would have lost his well placed foot.?
Min 87: Miles Lewis-Skelly finds some space in the middle of the pitch...
        ...hits an audacious 30-yard shot...
        ...Robbie Thomson palms the shot onto the bar...
        ...it spins back to Kai Havertz who heads the ball...
        ...but Robbie Fraser (DFA) is there to knock it out of danger.
