Match Report
Dunfermline pressed continually from the start, but brilliant keeping by Gallacher kept the score down to one before the interval from Shaw.
Shaw scored a second four minutes after the restart and, with almost the whole Dunfermline side over the half way line, Clydebank hit back. Two quick breakaways left Larnach and Law in the clear.
By this time Dunfermline had given up on their 100-goal attempt and were now concentrating on saving face. Kinninmonth restored their lead, but a fighting Clydebank got the equaliser when a swerving shot by McCallan deceived Arrol.
