Cumnock 1, Glencairn 0: Late winner breaks Glencairn's hearts in cup final drama

Cumnock bagged a last-gasp winner to win the Scottish Junior Cup for the first time since 1989.

Findlay Frye’s strike inside second half stoppage time broke Rutherglen Glencairn’s hearts and sent the trophy to Ayrshire.

It was no more than the hosts deserved in a dramatic second half at Broadwood, and the red-hot favourites were the better side throughout.

Cumnock last won the trophy in 1989, and were last in a final back in 2008, while this was Glencairn's first final appearance in 48 years, and they last won it in 1939.

Glencairn threatened again in 22 minutes but a free kick went bouncing past the right post, with Michael Lone closing in.

At the other end, Jordan Moore was nearly sent through on goal in 29 minutes, but it was well defended by Glencairn.
