Today’s Man of the Match goes to Ben Reilly who put in an excellent, all-round performance and was at the centre of a lot of our positive play. There were lots of contenders out there today in an excellent team display.

Well done, Ben 👏🏻

⬛️ Blackburn United 3️⃣
🟥 Heriot-Watt 1️⃣

An even first half ended goalless but the game burst into life in the second with a McDowall goal and Heriot-Watt equaliser before strikes from Schooler and Connolly wrapped up the 3pts in style.
