| Dougie Cameron's 24th-minute penalty earned Peterhead a place in the First Division play-off final. Cameron calmly converted his spot-kick after Chris Millar had brought down Martin Wood. Morton will feel aggrieved at not forcing the game to extra-time after creating numerous chances. However, they paid for a lack of cutting edge in front of goal, although Peterhead goalkeeper Paul Mathers was in inspired form throughout.
Peterhead manager Iain Stewart:
"It's a great day for the club. To beat a side like Morton is fantastic. "But there's still a long, long way to go if we are to win promotion. "But we're in there and that's all we can ask for."
Morton manager Jim McInally:
"I've decided to stay on as manager and I'm determined to go up as champions next season."
