Clyde 3-2 Queen’s Park

The Bully Wee took a stride towards booking their place in the Glasgow Cup semi-finals with victory over Queen’s Park in Airdrie this evening.

The Spiders were awarded a penalty midway through the half but Jay Kennedy pulled off a fine save low to his right to deny Reece Evans.

Clyde took the lead seconds from the interval when Scott Williamson won possession and ran through on goal, and powered a finish beyond Sam Kane.

Queen’s Park were awarded another penalty shortly after the restart after the referee deemed there was a jersey pull following a corner. Jamie Bradley dispatched this one past Kennedy.

Bradley put his side ahead midway through the half with his long distance strike too powerful for Kennedy.

Clyde then drew level when Dom Docherty’s chip over the Queen’s Park defence was met by a trialist, who looped a header over the ‘keeper and into the net.

Docherty then turned matchwinner a few minutes later after good determination from Taylor Sutherland saw him cut the ball back, and the midfielder unleashed a rasping drive from outside the box which took a deflection off a defender and nestled into the net.

Clyde’s final game of the group stage is against Partick Thistle, and they will progress to the semi-final unless losing by more than a five goal margin.
