QoS 3 Cowdenbeath 0

Defensive mistakes cost Cowden dear as Queen of the South ran out comfortable 3-0 winners at Palmerston Park.

The Blue Brazil started the game well but Paul Burns (20) knocked the ball into an empty net after David Hay slipped on the wet surface and Ryan Conroy doubled the advantage after 34 minutes with a firmly struck effort from 18 yards.

Cowden dominated possession after the break without making any real impact in the final third and Willie McLaren ended the game as a contest with 10 minutes remaining after latching onto a poor clearance from Hay to slot home.

An second half injury to Mark Ramsay added to the disappointing afternoon with the player due to visit hospital after the game for an x-ray on a suspected broken ankle.
