Kelso started the second half with more desired that there Leith counter parts and it was no surprise Kelso equalised again Derek Burnett had loads of time to slot past Leith keeper Gordon, Leith tried to get in front again with Mark Duthie failing to finish, through on the goal keeper, Craig Downie hit smacked the bar from 20 yards, and a Neil Ewart header from a corner was cleared off the line, just as Kelso looked like settling for share of the spoils up step forward Derek Burnett to rise above everybody to power a header into the net from a corner for his hat trick and Kelso winner.
