Match Report	Report from the Ross-shire Journal. Inverness Clachnacuddin 1 Ross County 4 Ross County compounded a profound four-to-one defeat on Inverness. County’s win came as a most agreeable and acceptable delight to the numerous supporters who travelled to Inverness, and when the result was proclaimed, a few were skeptical of the veracity of the message. Starting strongly, the County played a fast, long-ranging game, which kept the Clach defence on the run. Grant drew first blood with a beautiful left-foot drive which travelled low into the corner of the net. Next came a great goal by O. Cameron from the wing. Cameron’s angle to shoot was very narrow, but he gave the keeper no chance with a fast, high ball. A lead of two-nil at half-time put the County supporters in an optimistic mood, and the players also resumed in a winning vein. Trail signalled a return to the team by scoring two goals in this half, Clach netting one towards the end through Cameron. Ross County deserved their great win. In fact, on another two occasions they had the ball in the Clach net, but the referee disallowed the points, much to the chagrin of the visiting spectators. Cross, who deputised for Campbell in the County goal, gave a sound, safe display, and improved as the game went on. He had some very difficult shots to deal with, but showed that he had lost none of his old craft or agility. Garrow partnered Johnstone at back, and he was a decided hit. Both he and Johnstone, who was in good form, proved too strong for an erratic Clach forward line. Tom Pirie was superb. With Young and Macleod in top form, Pirie had not so much work thrust upon him as had been the rule in the last few games he has played in, and he was on the offensive most of the game, making opportunities for his forwards, and greatly harassing the Clach defence. Trail’s game at outside right was of the real cup-tie order. He kept swinging the ball into the centre and right across to the left, never letting the home defence settle. His goals were the result of good opportunism on his part. Paul Grant was a thorn in the Clach side. His drawing of the opposing defence was masterly, and both his placing of the ball and shooting were of a high order. Morrison, in the centre-forward berth, was too closely watched to be effective, but he showed himself a keen and hardy trier, who disregards danger to himself to benefit his side. Patience played his best game for the County, and will yet blossom out into a smart and profitable inside player. Charlie Cameron, on the extreme left wing, won the heart of both friend and foe alike by his sparkling and clever display. His goal was a real beauty, and was the one that knocked the kick out of the clever Clach eleven.
