Bamber Bridge made a game of it today in a keenly fought encounter with Scottish Premier League side Dundee United.
It was Brigs illustrious opponents that enjoyed the best of the first-half exchanges’.
On 23 minutes Brig’s Andy Reid brought down the lively Lee Miller on the edge of the box. Barry Robson curled the free kick around the wall and into the bottom right hand corner of the net.
Three minutes later, Jim McIntyre made it two-nil when the ball rebounded to him unmarked and from 15 yards out he made sure.
Brig were more of a threat in the second period following a procession of changes at half time. One of these changes Dave Campbell’s knock down 54 minutes into the game found Greg Brickell, who unleashed an unstoppable shot from 30 yards past United’s Derek Stillie.
Eleven minutes later, Campbell levelled the score, as he slid in unmarked to steer home Lee Pryers cross from the left, following good work from the fullback.
United were rewarded with a third goal after 71 minutes. Lee Miller curled a free kick around the wall into the back of the net, almost identical to Robson’s effort in the first half.
United made certain of victory when from five yards substitute Derek Robertson converted James Grady’s cross.
