A low, driving strike from Joe Chalmers trickles past the post from 20-yards out.
Similar situation to Morton's opener but Jack Hamilton looked like he had it covered.

A lot of their play is in front of the Morton defence though, not many penetrating runs are being made.

Quote MessageCredit to Morton. They stayed in there and get their goal. To take some heat off of the keeper, I think he maybe loses his footing as he goes for it.

Quote MessageA lot of what Dunfermline do looks really good with how they pin teams in. But, their main issue is a lack of bodies in the box to meet some good deliveries. Some set-pieces have been begging to be met in the box and there's no one there.
Dunfermline might be a bit perplexed as to how they're not ahead, or at least level, at the interval.
John Hughes is clearly angry with his players as they head down the tunnel.
A huge second half coming up in the Scottish Championship's relegation battle.

Quote MessageMorton haven't really had any passages of play, they haven't been building anything. You cannot count them out, they find ways to get goals. That is the difference between them and Dunfermline at the moment.
Iain Wilson
Out of the blue, against his former side too.
Wilson gathers the ball in the centre of the park and is afforded the freedom of East End Park to drive forward. He strikes across the ball sending it to the bottom left corner and goalkeeper Jakub Stolarczyk cannot scramble across quickly enough to keep it out.

Quote MessageWhen Dom Thomas collects it on the edge of the box, you're thinking he should just shoot. Perhaps he is just lacking that bit of match sharpness.
Dunfermline Athletic 0-0 Greenock Morton
Dunfermline finally get a shot on target.
Neat play across the box allows Dom Thomas time and space to lay off the onrushing Josh Edwards. His shot is too tame and easily held by Jack Hamilton.

Liam Polworth takes aim at goal some 25-yards out.
Speculative to say the least as it sails high over the bar.
Dunfermline Athletic 0-0 Greenock Morton
The first Dunfermline corner of the evening is disappointing as it fails to beat the first man.
A good opening half-hour from the home side though, who started the evening a point adrift at the bottom of the table.
They'll be eyeing this scoreline to take in with them at the break now - at least!
Dunfermline Athletic 0-0 Greenock Morton
Dunfermline swiftly shift through the gears and launch an attack down the right-hand side.
Ultimately it's a Morton goal kick but Steven Lawless did well with some quick feet to keep it alive initially.
Dunfermline Athletic 0-0 Greenock Morton
It's getting scrappier now. A few fouls in quick succession and the referee pulls a few players in to chat to them.
Beginning to feel like a game where the first goal could be crucial.

Quote MessageIt's important Dunfermline keep this intensity in their game. Morton will punish you if you give them half a chance.

It's calmed down a touch now with a bit more of a midfield battle taking place.
A cagey affair indeed so far.
Dunfermline Athletic 0-0 Greenock Morton
Dunfermline are enjoying a bit more possession now as they float in a cross that finds Dom Thomas running in behind.
He goes for a Van Basten-esque volley but fails to hit the target as it rockets over the bar.
Better from the home side, though.
Dunfermline Athletic 0-0 Greenock Morton
It has been all Morton so far, with that early Gozie Ugwu strike their only opportunity so far.
Dunfermline have a flurry of attacking intent down their left-hand side but a Dom Thomas handball brings that move to a half.
Dunfermline Athletic 0-0 Greenock Morton
Nearly an early opening goal!
A Morton corner ping-pongs around in the box and ultimately falls to Gozie Ugwu who thunders a shot off a defender just yards from goal.
Dunfermline living dangerously in the opening stages.
