Back-To-Back Wins For Larkhall

By Jack Moore

Larkhall Athletic made it back-to-back wins and successive clean sheets after beating in-form Shortwood United 3-0 at Plain Ham in the Evo-Stik League South, West on Wednesday night.

Shortwood started the evening protecting a run of five games without defeat, but fell behind after 38 minutes to a goal from George King.

And just 2 minutes later, Joe Tumelty doubled the Larks lead.

But the home side went into the break 3-0 up when Cory Simpson grabbed the third.

The second half was all about game management for the home side, which they did successfully to move up to twelfth in the table.
