A BRACE of goals in each half gave a well-organised,
resourceful Cowdenbeath side a comfortable 4-0 victory against Dumbarton
at the Rock this afternoon.
The visitors were on the
score sheet within eight minutes, as Marc McKenzie took advantage of a
clever through-ball cutting across a square defence. Then Jon Robertson
made it two after a scramble in the box on 19 minutes.
At several
stages in the game Sons achieved a good deal of possession, but could
not break down Cowdenbeath's solidly deployed back line and creative
midfield.
Dumbarton came out firing in the second half, but the
pattern of Cowden dominance repeated itself with Dominic Kennedy
deflecting in Jordan Morton's effort under pressure on 68 minutes, and
then the Blue Brazil's Scott Linton making it four with a swift
breakaway goal on 86 minutes.
Sons now lie one place off the foot
of the second division table. Next up is an away trip to Forfar Athletic
on Saturday 24 September, as they try to re-ignite their league
campaign. (17 Sept 2011).
