MATCH REPORT -- BRORA RANGERS 0 BUCKIE THISTLE 3

The Jags starting line-up showed no changes from the midweek draw with Deveronvale.

The match started in blustery conditions and the ball was constantly out of play in the opening five minutes.  Buckie went ahead in 12 minutes when DONNIE MUNRO collected a pass at the edge of the box and slammed the ball high into the net.

It was 2-0 six minutes later, Paul Napier crossed and DONNIE MUNRO slid in to finish for his second of the day.  Napier then blazed over from the edge of the box and the home side wanted a penalty on the half-hour mark, but the referee waved away their protests.

                                      HALF TIME 0-2

The Jags made a substitution two minutes into the second half, Angus being replaced by Duncan.

It was 3-0 on 50 minutes when PAUL NAPIER drove in on goal before chipping the ball over the keeper for a great finish.

Munro and Macrae were then replaced by Hamilton and Bruce minutes later, the highlights from the rest of the match were the home keeper making two great saves from a Davidson low shot and a volley from Duncan.
