WILDCAT U18s WIN SCOTS CUP

31 May 2015

Congratulations to the boys under18s who won the Scottish Cup at Glasgow Green with a well deserved 2-1 win over Perthshire in the final. Earlier on the day they defeated Clydesdale by 3 goals to 1 in the semi.Fraser Moran opened the scoring with a great deflection after clever play from Rob Harwood. Clydesdale scored an excellent equaliser but Western's dominance was rewarded when Luke Cranney fired the ball into the roof of the net from close range before he went on an incredible "Messi" style run beating the entire midfield and defence before passing to Andrew McAllister to deflect the ball high into the goal to clinch it.
In the final Perthshire scored within the first 2 minutes and proved really difficult to break down with a well organised performance but eventually Rob Harwood beat 2 players and rounded the keeper to score.With 5 minutes to go a goal fitting to win any Cup Final was scored by Andrew McConnell.The youngster received a great pass from brother Joe and he crashed the ball into the top left hand corner of the goal from Top D.

Well done to all the team in completing the indoor/outdoor double.
