Eager to bounce back from their shock League Cup exit at Keith and a first league defeat at Banks O’ Dee, Graeme Stewart’s side wasted no time in dominating their Midland League hosts - see highlights below.

Ten minutes in, Andy MacAskill opened the scoring with a left foot strike from the edge of the penalty box.

Midway through the first half, it was 2-0 to Jags when full back Joe McCabe smashed home a brilliant strike into the top corner.

The tie was effectively over before half time when MacAskill was shoved down in the box for a penalty which Jack Murray clinically converted.

One more goal settled the contest and it was McCabe who added his second with a flick from MacAskill’s free kick.
