INVERNESS LFC 0 SPARTANS 2
Spartans made the long trip to play Premier League newcomers Inverness, With Spartans still struggling with injuries they again needed to bring in trialists. Spartans got off the mark in 29 minutes when Kristy Scott headed home a Diana Barry cross. Three minutes later Diana Barry turned scorer when she fired past Kim Jappy to make the score 2-0. Hayley Lauder and Donna Cheyne both hit the woodwork and Kim Jappy (left) made some good stops to keep Spartans out. Inverness played well in spells without troubling stand-in keeper Shelley Kerr but showed enough to suggest that they will be a welcome addition to the top league and it won't be long before they register points on the table.
