Dumfries broke the line after 15 minutes but not due their play but Orkneys mistake.
The game was a good spectacle to watch and the crowd enjoyed the entertainment. Dumfries showed enterprise wide as this was the weakness in the Orkney game in patches.
Orkney gave great accountability to of themselves through determination not to give up and keeping pressure on Dumfries. The score flattered Dumfries but by no means does it undermine what the 16 boys done on the pitch for a second week without a full squad.
