Brechin City 2 Cowdenbeath 2

A dramatic second half Brechin fightback ensured that the sides will go into the 2nd leg at Central Park on Saturday all square.

The Blue Brazil started the game in a whirlwind fashion and were 2-0 up after only 26 minutes thanks to a 20-yard strike from Scott Linton (4) and a Lewis Coult header (26) - his first goal for the club.

Jimmy Nicholl's team were in total control but two substitutes at the break swung the game in the Brechin's favour with the home side on level terms within 6 minutes. Sub Jordan Kirkpatrick (46) started the comeback with a curling shot and Mitch Megginson grabbed the equaliser 5 minutes later.

It's now all to play for on Saturay at Central Park with the winners progressing into the final and will face either Ayr United (4) or Forfar Athletic (1).
