Our under-19s played out a 3-3 league draw with Alloa Athletic on Tuesday evening.
The Saints had started the game strongly and were rewarded with the opener on 11 minutes. A corner was delivered to the back post and, while the initial header was saved, Jack Robertson was positioned nicely to tuck the ball into the back of the net.
The positive momentum continued and the lead was doubled with 16 minutes on the clock. A delightful Arran Brookfield delivery from the right flank found Dougal McAdam deep inside the box and he kept his composure to jink inside before finishing across the goalkeeper.
Half-chances would fall for both teams as the half progressed, but the visitors did manage to pull one back on 42 minutes.
Robertson wasted little time after the break to get himself back on the scoresheet, this time guiding a lovely volley into the corner from another Brookfield cross.
Alloa, however, would work their way back into the game and netted their second of the night just shy of the hour mark after neat work from the winger.
As Saints looked to see the match out, a penalty was conceded on 88 minutes and the visitors managed to convert to level things up.
Team: Thomson, Brookfield, Trialist, Voy, Fyffe (Parmenter 81), Trialist, McAdam (Gray 45), Preston (Russell 81), Trialist (Da Silva 60), Robertson, Shaeb.
