Eagles Torn Apart..................

Cupar Eagles faced the league leaders Elevado with confidence at a low point after suffering defeat in the opening three matches of the season. Elevado threatened immediately and McGregor had push away a right foot volley onto the crossbar. It came as no surprise when Elevado opened the scoring soon afterwards and a second shortly followed. Marshall took three players out with a defence splitting pass to free Halley who tucked the ball home to put the Eagles back in it. Elevado upped the presure and scored another two goals before the break. Martin took over in goals in the second half but with a badly bruised knee restricting his movement an other couple of goals were quickly conceeded before Hood replaced him. Eagles kept on pushing forward but were caught out with two more well taken goals before the final whistle sounded.
