The Hoose progressed to round 2 of the King Cup with a hard fought entertaining fixture against league 2 side Lochgelly Albert FC

Goals from Kirwan and Duffy put the Hoose 2-0 up but Lochgelly pulled one back with the award of a penalty when Lowden was penalised for bringing down the Fifes side striker within the box.

HT 2-1

The Hoose started the 2nd half brightly extending their lead to 3-1 only for Lochgelly to pull another back following the award of a free kick for a dubious hand ball outside the box.

3-2

The game was final put out of Lochgellys reach when some fine play saw debutant Danny McDonald fire home from just outside the box to take the Hoose tally to 4 on the day.

Final score

Fauldhouse United FC 4-2 Lochgelly Albert FC

The Hoose march on to the next round and we wish Lochgelly all the best for the rest of the season
