Lochaber 3 Oban Celtic 1

Lochaber recorded their second successive win when they beat Oban Celtic 3-1 at Spean Bridge.

Lochaber’s Barry MacDonald continued his suspension, whilst Celtic’s Ross MacMillan began a three-game ban after being sent off against Skye the previous Saturday. Andy MacDonald was free of suspension for the visitors and Craig MacMillan’s yellow card against Skye means he will miss Oban Celtic’s next two games.

Ben Delaney returned for Lochaber, with Bob MacIntyre featuring for Celtic. Findlay Macdonald gave the hosts the lead on 11 minutes and Conor Sweeney, who is proving to be a key addition since his return from Tayforth, added a second on 19 minutes.

Ewen Campbell gave Celtic hope with a goal on 55 minutes but when referee Des McNulty awarded Lochaber a penalty on 76 minutes, Conor Sweeney scored to wrap up both points.

Glenurquha­rt 6 Aberdour 0

It has been a tough start to Aberdour’s first season in the Mowi National Division. After going down 9-0 to Beauly last week, they were beaten 6-0 by Glenurquha­rt at Blairbeg at the weekend.

Glenurquha­rt hit the front through Charlie MacLeod on 11 minutes and Connor Golabek added a second on 15 minutes.

A couple of late call-offs meant Aberdour travelled with just 12 players and midway through the first half, Panda Fraser went down with a pulled hamstring.

John Barr made it 3-0 at the break with a goal on the half hour and got his second with 20 minutes remaining.

Andrew Corrigan added a brace on 74 and 90 minutes to complete the 6-0 win.

Skye Camanachd P Inveraray P

Heavy rain on Saturday morning led to the postponeme­nt of Skye Camanachd’s match with Inveraray at Pairc nan Laoch, Portree. Inveraray had reached Fort William before the call-off.
