Dyce 2 – 2 Beacon Rangers
Dyce knocked Premier Division side Beacon Rangers out of the Saltire Fashions North of Scotland Amateur Cup on penalties at Pitmedden Road on Saturday 15th November. The game finished all square at the end of 120 minutes and Holmes was then the hero for Dyce in the shoot-out, saving two spot kicks to secure his side’s place in the third round.
Nicolls Amateurs 3 – 3 University
A last-gasp Callum Lamont strike denied Nicolls their first league win of the season in this Premier Division clash at Denmore. Lamont netted a minute into stoppage time, just two minutes after Dave Askew appeared to have sealed the points for the home side in an entertaining encounter.
Hazlehead United 0 – 3 Hilton
Division Three Hilton gave Division One (East) Hazlehead Utd a hard game on a very heavy pitch and go through to the next round of the competition. The goals came from Stuart in the first-half and second period strikes from Sinclair and Rose.
Cowie Thistle 9 – 0 Huntly Amateurs
This first round North of Scotland cup game was played with a gale force wind blowing down the pitch. Huntly’s defence was under pressure from the start of the game, fielding an understrength team with key players missing. Cowie Thistle went 5-0 up inside 16 minutes and from there the result was never in doubt.
Torry United 3 – 4 Johnshaven Athletic
Torry perhaps held the upper hand in the psychological stakes prior to this enthralling North of Scotland Cup tie at Inverdee, having beaten Johnshaven only two weeks previously by the odd goal in three in a very competitive league encounter, but Athletic travelled north with a strong squad determined to maintain their cup challenge.
Lads Club Ams 0 – 3 Stonehaven Athletic
Stonehaven Athletic got back to winning ways on Saturday with a 3-0 win at Lads Club Ams after an impressive second-half display. A quick-fire Reid brace was added to by Stewart late on, after the home side had been reduced to 10 men.
Halliburton 1 – 1 Luthermuir
The gale force wind blowing down the park made this Scottish Amateur Cup tie a game of two halves. Halliburton’s Webster struck after 15 minutes but this was cancelled out for the visitors by Robertson with 10 minutes remaining. The two teams will have to do it all again in two weeks time at Luthermuir.
FC Geldie 2 – 3 Kintore
Kintore go into the hat for the third round draw of the AFC Trophy after beating FC Geldie in a hard fought game at Findon. This was the second meeting of the teams in as many weeks and Kintore came out victors again.
ARI Thistle 1 – 1 Mearns United
