It took until the 34th minute to open the scoring when Warren Barry in his first pre-season start weaved through 3 challenges before placing the ball into the bottom left corner for 1-0.

Three minutes later Punjab doubled the lead when a Bethel Ofoshune throw-in was headed by Victor Carvalho to Gary Park whose cross field ball to Warren Barry was well held up before he delivered to Andrew Cox who headed home for 2-0.

At the interval Cofie and Singh made way for Julian Millington & Bruce Calder.
Within 5 minutes of the re-start Julian Millington scored to make it 3-0 with a good shot.

A minute later Andrew Cox chipped the keeper for 4-0.
