Third Lanark 0 - 0 Aberdeen

At Glasgow, before some 2000 spectators. In the opening minutes Third Lanark had the better of the exchanges, but their forwards failed to improve on their opportunities. After a brief attack by Aberdeen, the Third pressed again, and for a long time the visitors were kept on the defensive. Towards the interval Aberdeen were aggressive, but there was no scoring by either side. The second half was a repetition of the first, the home team having most of the play, and but for weak finishing they might have taken the lead. A fine run by the visitors right wing looked dangerous, but Orr cleared, and afterwards Third Lanark were always the more likely scorers. Aberdeen's sound defence prevailed. Result:- No scoring.
