An injury time goal from Paul Macleod gave ten-man Rothes victory over Buckie Thistle and saw them lift the Highland League Cup for the first time in their history. 
 
Joe McCabe gave Buckie an early first half lead, only for Allen MacKenzie to level matters with a fine solo effort just before the half hour mark. 
 
Rothes semi final hero Craig Cormack was sent off midway through the second period, and just as the game looked to be heading into extra time, Macleod headed home the 94th minute winner.

Highland League Cup Final 
 
Rothes v Buckie Thistle 
 
Rothes and Buckie Thistle meet in the final of the Highland League Cup at Christie Park after excellent semi final victories over Formartine and Brora respectively. This will be the Speysiders first cup final in ten years and they will be without the unavailable Steven Anderson, Robert Donaldson, Ryan McRitchie and Aidan Wilson. Jack Brown and Allan Pollock are also doubtful and will face late fitness tests. Gregg Main and Paul Macleod are available and return to the squad, along with fit again former Aberdeen youngster Sean Linden. 
 
Buckie have reached their first Highland League Cup final since 2014, when they lost to Clach on penalties. Hamish Munro is suspended for the Jags after his semi final red card at Brora, otherwise Buckie boss Graeme Stewart has a fully fit squad to choose from.

The visitors got off to a flier with an early strike from Steven Ross, only for Bjorn Wagenaar to level for the home side after the break.
 
Buckie again went ahead in the second period of extra time through a Jack Murray header, then substitute Gregor MacDonald sent the tie to penalties with a deflected effort in the dying seconds.

Rothes came from behind to defeat Formartine at North Lodge Park and win through to next week's Highland League Cup final, where they will face the winner of tomorrow's semi final between Brora Rangers and Buckie Thistle.
 
Daniel Park's 20-yard strike in the 70th minute looked to have won it for the home side, only for Ali Sutherland to level matters with just four minutes remaining.
 
Craig Cormack then grabbed the winner for Rothes two minutes into extra time, producing a fine finish from substitute Ross Gunn's through ball.
