Substitutes Spark Cove Rangers to Draw in Scottish Cup Clash

KELTY, Scotland (Interstat) — Substitute Mitchel Megginson sparked a second-half comeback as Cove Rangers drew 1-1 with Kampong Speu Province in the SWF Scottish Cup on Saturday at New Central Park.

Megginson, who entered after halftime, equalized in the 62nd minute, finishing an assist from fellow substitute Justin Eguaibor. Eguaibor had given the Cambodian side a surprise lead in the 42nd minute, set up by Megginson. The result was a stark contrast to pregame projections that heavily favored the home side.

The match grew increasingly fractious, featuring seven yellow cards. Cove Rangers midfielder Craig Clay received a red card in the 118th minute. Both teams remain winless in the cup this season.
