CARNEGIE THISTLE 1, LOMOND UNITED 1

LOMOND travelled through to Townhill for a league fixture against Carnegie Thistle.
The visitors brought in Hrdlicka for the injuried Melville, otherwise Lomond stuck with the same 11 as last week.
For the opening 20 minutes Lomond didn't settle and it looked like the long ball tactics from the homesters would cause them trouble.
But against the run of play Lomond went in front, Cunningham started the move, Dales then played in Caldwell who made no mistake - the captain once again doing the business.
The home side continued to punt long balls forward, but Muirhead was not troubled.
The second half was just as poor as the first, and the home keeper made a great save from a Janicki volley.
This was one of only two shots Lomond had in the entire 90 minutes and this was to cost them with 15 minutes to go.
Yet again Lomond lost a goal from a corner, a simple header at the front post beating Muirhead.
This was another below par performance that saw another two points dropped, which is not good enough.
Plenty effort and commitment but results need to improve.
