Clachnacuddin have finally won their first game in the Highland League this season as they defeated Keith at Grant Street Park.

The Lilywhites finally ended the drought after failing to win their previous 16 matches in the league this season and ended a run of 21 games without a win in the league.

Their last win in the Highland League was when they defeated Banks O'Dee 3-1 in Inverness on Wednesday, March 29.

Clach broke the deadlock after 17 minutes when Harry Hennem scored from the penalty spot.

But Keith levelled when Matthew Tough found the net to make it 1-1 at half time.

With nine minutes remaining, Rorie Macleod regained the lead for the hosts before Connor Bunce killed the game off to make it 3-1 and give the Lilywhites all three points.

It is the first time Clachnacuddin have won a game in the Highland League this season and only second match this season, after previously beating Inverurie Locos 1-0 in the Scottish Cup first round.
