Poor pass in defence from Goodwin puts Lebanon in, but the shot is poor and goes wide from an angle with just the keeper to beat.

18 mins Duke and Yengi like deer in the headlights as Metcalfe drives through the middle and with no options for the second time has a shot blocked at the edge of the area.

30 mins and Goodwin pulls a beautiful ball back for Hrustic unmarked at the edge of the area … he skied it.

Goodwin looking good every time he gets the ball (with the one exception). Most of our good attacks are through him.

43 mins Goodwin a sublime first time cross with the outside of his left foot right onto Souttar’s head at the far post, only for the header to hit the outside of the post.

Second half less than two minutes in, Goodwin free kick, Souter header, keeper pushes it onto a defender and it goes in.

And as I type Goodwin scores a cracker from edge of the area.

3-0

Hrustic caught twice in this match in bad tackles. That one was a clear red card. I won’t be surprised if that puts him out for weeks.

Those tackles can kill your career.
