St.John's beat Currie HS 4-2 on penalties after a 2-2 draw in the U15 Shield 4th Round and now travel to St.Andrew's Secondary in Glasgow or Kemnay Ac. in Aberdeenshire. It was 0 degrees at a frosty Harp and it took some time for St.John's to reach the heat needed for a 4th Round game. Currie HS adapted better and were quick on the break. Currie took the lead with a break on the right finding a striker unmarked in the centre who picked his spot and finished. With halftime approaching Currie went 2 up, when a headed backpass was not hard enough, Currie took advantage to find the net. The second half started slowly but on about 50 minutes St.John's started to get grips with the game and pressed hard for an opening. With 15 minutes to go St.John's pulled one back, game on! A great 20-yard shot was going for the top corner but headed away by a defender but eventually a move on the right was finished from close range for 2-2 with only minutes remaining. In the penalty shoot-out both teams scored their first kick, then Currie shot wide and St.John's scored. St.John's saved the 3rd Currie attempt while St.John's scored again to lead 3-1 after 6 kicks. Currie scored the next to trail 3-2 but only had one kick left so St.John's just needed to score to go through. St.John's did score their 4th penalty to start the celebrations. A good attitude from Currie HS at the end as everybody shook hands.
