Replay needed after Annan draw

Annan and Brechin will battle it out in a replay for a place in the fifth round of the Scottish Cup after a 1-1 draw.The visitors took the lead against the run of play when Colin Hamilton headed home from close range four minutes before the break.Prior to that Annan had been on top and David Hopkirk had a great chance to shoot, but in a good position he opted to pass and the opportunity was gone.The striker was even more wasteful after the break when he headed wide from close range, but he was rescued by Matt Flynn on the hour.Athletic's midfielder nipped in at the near post to convert Hopkirk's ball in.Brechin could have won it late on but Andrew Jackson hit the woodwork, meaning the game will be decided by a replay.
