SHETLAND’S Leighton Flaws hit an extra-time winner from the penalty spot in a 1-0 victory over Thurso in the Jock MacKay Memorial Cup final at Sir George’s Park last Saturday.
Shetland shaded it during regulation time but the nearest they came to scoring was a Conor Regan shot which rebounded off the upright in the first half.
