Queens Park SFC v Bearsden

McFadden, Brechany, and Friel the Heroes as Bearsden Beaten in Epic Comeback

We have some Conference League action with Queens Park SFC looking for another victory after last weekend’s three points.

Bearsden were also looking for their first three points of the season after a very slow start to the campaign.

Queens Park SFC confirmed their status as a team in form today, securing a dramatic 3-2 victory over Bearsden in an absolute rollercoaster of a match at Nethercraigs. The Spiders (SFC) showed incredible resilience to fight back from a lightning-fast setback, thanks to goals from Ciaran McFadden, John Brechany, and a late, decisive header from Kieran Friel. This hard-fought win marks their second victory in two weeks!

⏱️ Instant Drama: Bearsden Strike First

The capacity crowd was barely in their seats when Bearsden delivered a shocking early blow, netting a goal after just 30 seconds to take a rapid 1-0 lead. It was a moment that could have deflated a lesser side, but QPSFC showed their mettle.

âš˝ The Comeback Kings

The equaliser arrived thanks to a moment of sheer quality from Ciaran McFadden. Driving into the box, McFadden unleashed a powerful and precise finish that levelled the scores and injected new life into the home side.

The drama continued shortly after as QPSFC missed a penalty, a gasp-inducing moment that threatened to stall their momentum. However, they kept pushing, and just before the half-time whistle, John Brechany capitalised on the pressure, slotting the ball home to give QPSFC a crucial 2-1 lead at the break.

🚀 A Bearsden ‘Worldie’ Sets Up Tense Finale

The second half began with Bearsden determined to fight their way back. Their persistence paid off around the hour mark in spectacular fashion. A moment of individual brilliance saw the Bearsden player unleash a truly sensational ‘worldie’ strike from 35 yards out, rocketing into the net for 2-2.

With the scores level and only minutes left on the clock, the tension was palpable. Both sides battled fiercely, but it was QPSFC who found the breakthrough.

🎯 Friel’s Flying Header Seals the Deal

In the 83rd minute (or roundabouts), the moment of truth arrived. A fantastic delivery into the box found the head of Kieran Friel, who powered his header past the keeper to send the Nethercraigs faithful into raptures! It was the perfect timing for the winner, giving Bearsden no time for a final response.

FULL-TIME SCORE: Queens Park SFC 3 – Bearsden 2

This fantastic display of character and attacking threat ensures QPSFC keep their winning streak alive and is a huge boost to the team’s ambitions this season.
