Pumpherston started brightly at the start of the second half. Midfield had control of the game and good communication from Ryan, Scott, Corrie & Grant nullifying the Armadle goal threat. Jason D was to cap a fine comeback performance after his lay off through injury with his second goal of the game; a sweet strike from the edge of the box and equally Jack in only his second game converted a penalty for his hatrick. Between these goals Armadale alsoe netted, taking the scoring to 6-3.
The Pumpherston midfield seemed to switch off for the last 15mins of the game and Armadale took advantage to bring the score back to 6-5 with two quick goals. This led to a tight finish, the final chance of the game fell to Armadale, their striker breaking through the Pumphy defence and bearing down on what looked a certain goal scoring chance to level the game however Ben was quick off his line to narrow the striker's options and diving at his feet to make the difference between wining and drawing the game pulled off a great save to push the ball wide and Corrie to complete the defensive clearance.
