Glasgow Uni 1 - 2 Cowie Thistle
Cowie made it through to the last 32 of the Scottish Cup for the first time in over 10 years with a superb performance today against Glasgow Uni.
Cowie seemed to have saved their best performances for the Scottish Cup this season and started this game well again and had a couple of half chances through McDonald and Lovick before LOVICK did open the scoring in the 10th minute with a header from a Nicoll corner.
The lead was doubled in the 20th minute when from a Smithy corner this time BUCK headed home for a well deserved 2-0 lead.
Cowie dominated the rest of the first half and could of easily been 3 or 4 nil up before the half time whistle went.
Glasgow Uni came out strong in the second half and Cowie had to defend more and more but looked dangerous on the counter and could’ve made the game safe in the 65th minute when first Badger hit the bar and then a couple of minutes later Lovick hit the underside of the bar with a header.
Glasgow Uni then went up the park and got a goal back when a cross wasn’t cleared properly and the striker had the easy task of finishing from inside the 6 yard box.
Uni pushed for the remainder of the game to get the equaliser as Cowie began to tire on the huge park but a magnificent defensive effort limited the chances with Jarvie making a great save in the final minute to ensure the whistle went and Cowie were through!
Great credit to the lads for beating a very strong team, and a special mention to the travelling support for their non stop singing throughout the 90!
All the best to Glasgow Uni for the rest of their season
Scorers today Lovick, Buchanan
