McBookie Ayrshire District League

ANNBANK UNITED 5

LUGAR BOSWELL THISTLE 2

FIVE-star Annbank came out on top in an entertaining match at New Pebble Park against a stuffy Lugar side who never gave up.

It was Lugar who started well and deservedly went ahead in 10 minutes with a lovely goal into the bottom corner.

Annbank were back on level terms four minutes later, David Waite netting with a shot from outside the penalty area. Ten minutes after the break, Jay Holland put Bankies in front when he volleyed the ball into the net.

The home side went further ahead a few minutes later when the Lugar keeper made a good save, but the ball fell to Scott Granger who netted. Lugar then had their best spell in the match after this and deservedly pulled a goal back.

Annbank however were not to be denied and goals by Luke McCowan and substitute Roddy Paterson gave the Bankies the points.

ANNBANK: Fisher, Sherrie, Waite, Faulds, Sloan, Granger, Kirkwood, Hainey, McCowan, Holland, Martin. Subs: Paterson, Trialist, Trialist.
