Whitburn coast past Pumpherston in DJ Laing East Region Cup

A dominant first half display from Whitburn saw them go in 3 up at the break and in total control of the game. Yet Pumpherston started brightly and looked as though they meant business but were unable to trouble Dougie Horne. The deadlock was broken on the quarter hour when Martin Russell made space on the edge of the box and shot low into the bottom left corner. After a period of sustained pressure Darren Liddell netted on the half hour to double the lead with a similar shot. 10 minutes later it was three when Liddell tapped in from 3 yards when he timed his run perfectly to meet Andy Mochan's pinpoint left wing cross. The second half turned out to be a bit of a damp squib compared to the first with fewer good goal attempts though the acrobatic save by of a top corner bound diving header by Mochan is worthy of note with 17 minutes to go. Also 6 minutes from the end John Batt got a consolation for his side as he drove in on Horne's goal and fired a great shot beyond him. In the end a comfortable win and Whitburn travel to Fauldhouse next week on league business. Match report.
