Both team had to deal with blustery conditions throughout this match but it was Leith who settled the quickly playing some neat football with no end product, Euan Campbell through twice but failed to get good connection with the ball as it was early dealt with by Brian Young. But it was houses that took a surprise lead, John Hunter evading the Leith defence to slot past the onrushing Iain Gordon in the home goal on the 43rd Minute. Second half and it was Easthouses that settled better, Iain Gordon pulling off an excellent save at the feet of Ryan Curran, John Hunter also went close as this game became end to end, Leith made a double substitution and it was that man Steven Radzynski who glanced his header over Brain Young after Jamie Lauder free-kick on the 89th Minute, but the game wasn’t finished straight after kick off Easthouses got the ball back and a through pass that looked at least 3 yards offside but Ryan Curran didn’t stop as the Leith defence did and slotted past Iain Gordon from a tight angle 92nd Minute.
