Kick For Victory
Cartha Queens Park (green strip) kick for touch at Stoneyhill during a relegation battle with Musselburgh in Scottish rugby union's BT National League First Division. The Glasgow-based visitors won a see-saw game 35-31, scoring the decisive try in the first minute of stoppage time. At one stage, CQP, having trailed 0-12, led 28-12 but then fell 28-31 behind. Musselburgh fluffed a great chance, dropping the ball in the middle backs with the way to the line clear, to snatch victory in the sixth and last minute of stoppage time. The 68th-minute dismissal of the CQP full-back, for a tip tackle, meant the visitors finished the game a player short.
