BARDAR UNITED 1, LOMOND UNITED 6

LOMOND travelled down to Kinghorn for a league fixture against Barder United and emerged comfortable winners.
The visitors had Derek Bushnell in goal and David Elder starting for the first time since the sides last met in January.
Play was end to end for the opening stages, the vistors had the better chances but had to wait until the 25th minute to open the scoring.
Danny Caldwell struck a shot from 20 yards which the keeper couldn't hold, the in-rushing D.Elder slammed the rebound into the net.
After 30 minutes the homesters levelled the match with a well taken effort at the back post when the defence switched off.
Lomond pressed again and went back in front when good work by Caldwell and D.Elder set Sean Farrell away.
His shot struck the inside of the post before nestling in the back of the net.
Minutes before half time the home side should have been awarded a penalty when a clear hand ball by Neil Cunningham was missed by the ref.
Lomond came flying out the traps at the start of the second half and hit three goals in a ten minute spell.
D.Elder scored two after getting on the end of a couple of crosses for yet another hat trick.
Drew MacLeod was hauled down in the box and up stepped captain Caldwell to score his 23rd of the season from the spot.
The vistors should have continued to keep the home side on the back foot but it was not until late in the match that Gavin Dales scored with the help of a deflection.
The match ended on a sour note when Bardar had two players red carded.
Another three points but plenty more to come from this squad.
They can play better but a good victory to set them up for Saturday's tough cup match against unbeaten Kennoway.
