Falkirk GHG IV 1
GHK Clydebank 1
Falkirk won 3-0 on penalties

This Men's Reserve Plate game on Sunday at the Bathgate astro saw the Glasgow side start the game almost half an hour late, which did nothing for the demeanour of the Falkirk side. In the first five minutes, Gregor Maxwell had the chance to go in front from a cross from Craig Callahan, and a later shot was saved by the keeper. Scott Coventry saw a shot at a penalty corner saved in similar fashion, with Iain Cameron having a chance just before the half time whistle. The visitors from Glasgow eventually found the way to goal with a breakaway run which left the defence lost. Iain Cameron had another chance from a mazy run through their defence, but the equaliser came from a hotly disputed penalty flick award, which Gregor Maxwell calmly slotted away. Despite a late flurry attacking the visitors' goal when Iain Cameron came so close to putting the winner away, the teams were destined to a penalty flick shoot-out. Thanks to goals by Scott Coventry, Gregor Maxwell and Barry Warner, the fours will progress to the last sixteen of the Plate competition on Saturday 15th March.
