The match had reached the halfway point with Forfar Athletic ahead 1-0, and the second half also began with that same scoreline. The key flashpoint came when Mackenzie Lemon received a second yellow card for a bad foul, a decision that left Forfar Athletic a player short.

There was still time for more drama before the game was stopped. Neil Stafford saved Tyler Mykyta’s penalty, denying Formartine United a quick route back into the match.

Substitutions also featured before the abandonment, with Sam Thomson coming on for Jonathan Crawford for Formartine United. But after the second half had continued with Forfar Athletic still leading 1-0, the match was abandoned for an unknown reason.

That leaves the Challenge Cup tie without a normal finish, and with only the events before the stoppage available to tell the story. Forfar Athletic had the lead, Formartine United had a missed penalty, and the match ended without a completed conclusion.
