Thornton Hibs v Lochee United

John Laing30 Jan 2019 - 13:05

East Region Superleague

Lochee United visited Memorial Park on Saturday as the bookie's favourites for the Superleague and in the opening stages they looked like living up to that billing as they threw everything at the Hibs' defence in an attempt to open the scoring.

And it only took eight minutes for them to do so when Scott McComiskie got on the end of Greg Kirk's deep cross and his low drive flashed into the bottom corner of the net.

The Bluebells continued to enjoy the bulk of possession with Ryan Linton making a great tipover to prevent Kieran McWalter's shot from counting.

Thornton gradually weathered the storm though and came more into things without seriously troubling Lennard Ewing in the visitors' goal.

So that's now two games played with the Hibs still looking to score their first goal of the season. Hopefully this will come next Saturday when Whitburn are the visitors to Memorial Park.
