Mowi Premiership
Fort William 0 Kilmallie 1 Kilmallie came out on top in their derby against Fort William, winning 1-0 in their 3pm throw up at An Aird.
The goal that separated the sides came from Calum MacDougall after just seven minutes but owed much to the lead up play from wing centre Ben MacKinnon who ran away from Jack Fraser has he burst up the left. MacKinnon’s run took him to around the penalty spot and his shot bobbled by full back Mark Grant. Calum MacDougall ran onto the ball at the edge of the D and he flicked it past keeper Paul MacKay.
It took an outstanding Paul MacKay save at around the hour mark to keep out a great Daniel Stewart strike.
Referee Alex MacVicar played six minutes stoppage time and Fort William, who piled on the pressure during the closing stages of the game, came so close to a leveller when Arran MacPhee hit the side-netting following a corner.
It was an eventful afternoon for match-winner Calum MacDougall on his second game back – he played an hour as a substitute against Kinlochshiel – following a serious knee injury. MacDougall went down with what turned out to be a dislocated shoulder so faces another spell on the sidelines.
