Dumbarton United 2005s booked their spot in the last 32 of the Scottish Youth FA Cup after a fiercely contested 2-1 local derby win over Drumchapel United.

Both sides knew they would need to be physical and take their chances in the fourth round clash which made for a very nervy start with neither team wanting to make any costly mistakes early on.

The home side managed to edge ahead 15 minutes in from a set-piece taken just outside the 18-yard box after a contentiously won free-kick.

But United came alive after falling behind as they put together some lovely passing moves as they began to take control of the match.

Despite their best efforts as they pressed hard for the equaliser, they went in 1-0 down at the break with the game perfectly poised.

Dumbarton started where they left off after the restart as they continued to dictate possession in the middle of the park while keeping it tight at the back.

With wave after wave of attack, it was only a matter of time before United levelled and they grabbed their deserved equaliser 46 minutes in after the Drumchapel keeper fumbled Chris McGroggan’s cross right into the path of Ryan Murray who coolly slotted home to bring his side right back into it.

Both sides pushed forward for the winner with some great end-to-end play as Drumchapel switched to three up top.

With the United back four keeping things tight at the back, the match was poised nicely for a Dumbarton counter attack and McGroggan netted the winner after some lovely link up play started by Kristian Zetocha.

The United youngsters were never in any danger after that as they saw it out comfortably in the end to progress to the fifth round of the Scottish Cup. The draw for the last 32 takes place tomorrow.
