Match Report


Dundee Courier

Cowdenbeath's method of cool attacking soccer paid off for them with two goals in the opening seven minutes.

Mullen, the centre-forward, put the ball in the net five minutes from the start and Ross two minutes later scored second.

Alan Munro, playing at inside-left last night, took some wind from Cowdenbeath's sails when in 36 minutes he scored from a McGhee corner in a goalmouth scramble.

At the other end, Sugden and Mullen kept McDonald busy. In the 66th minute, Cowdenbeath went further ahead when Ross picked up a loose ball and scored from close in.

Daily Record

Cowdenbeath made sure of the points at Clydebank with two goals within seven minutes of the start.

Mullen and Ross shocked the Bankies in a whirlwind start- and, though Munro pulled one back before the interval, Ross made it 3-1 24 minutes from time.
