After the weekend’s fixture card was wiped out due to the weather, both teams were happy to arrange a friendly at Bayview.

Several changes in the home side’s starting eleven saw a debut also for new signing Jay Watson.

Lochore took the lead when Celentano was fouled inside the penalty area. Harris stepped up and sent Kennoway`s Brodie the wrong way to open the scoring.

Unfortunately for the `keeper, Payne was on hand to knock the ball home from a few yards out.

With a few minutes remaining Brand collected the ball from Collins and smashed a howitzer of a shot fully from 30 yards high past the despairing reaches of Lochore`s keeper.
