    Falkirk 0-2 Inverness CT

    A heart-in-the-mouth moment for Falkirk keeper Brian Kinnear as he lets a cross from Wallace Duffy squirm through his fingers. He gets away with it though as the ball lands on the roof of the net.

    Caley Thistle centre-half Robbie Deas is late with a sliding lunge near halfway and is the first name in Nick Walsh's book this afternoon.

    Free-kick to Falkirk. A chance to get the big lads up, but it's taken quickly and Inverness clear as Sean Welsh gets to the eventual cross before Coll Donaldson.

    Falkirk have come from behind twice in this season's competition to get here.

    Both times they were just a goal down, though. This will take some effort but it's not beyond them.

    Leon McCann slides in to send Jay Henderson tumbling but it's the Falkirk defender who is left hobbling.

    Run it off...

    Fitba, eh? At one end Inverness are throwing their bodies on the line with some heroic blocks.

    Right they go up the other end and plant a second in the net. What a peach of a cross from Jay Henderson, by the way. Header wasn't bad either.

    That's not an easy header. It's a great cross in, the keeper has no chance.

    Dan MacKay

    A wonderful nod from Dan MacKay from near the penalty spot.

    The on-loan Hibs man is left all alone and takes full advantage, powering the ball downwards from a lovely Jay Henderson delivery.

    Falkirk 0-1 Inverness CT

    Multiple Falkirk efforts are blocked in a frantic period of play. Kai Kennedy took a tumble as well, but the officials - on and off the pitch - are not interested.

    Mark Ridgers will be happy to have held that with no issues.

    He's had a couple of nervy moments with his feet but his hands were safe there.

    Max Kucheriavyi aims a header on target but it's an easy save for Mark Ridgers.

    Robbie Deas with a thunderous challenge just a few yards in front of the Inverness CT box. A real bone shaker for Falkirk forward Rumarn Burrell.

    Caley Thistle's Jay Henderson has a go from a long way out, but his shot flies high over the target.

    Falkirk are having a good spell but the Inverness defence is standing firm without too much fuss.

    From the press box that looked in all the way from Callumn Morrison.

    Agonising for Falkirk's main man. Mark Ridgers is very lucky.

    Don't want to jinx anything but this game feels like it has serious potential. What a start.

    I know it looks easy, it looked like it was going in.

    It's exactly what Falkirk need. They are showing they can hit back

  20. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 11 mins

    Falkirk 0-1 Inverness CT

    What a chance for Falkirk!

    Caley Thistle keeper Mark Ridgers gets in an awful mess trying to kick clear outside his area and the ball falls invitingly to Callumn Morrison.

    The empty goal is gaping but his low shot from 25 yards or so clips the base of the post.
