Broxburn get firmly on top of Hill of Beath
Two second-half goals from Brian Fairbairn and a wonder strike in the first half from Scott Pittman saw the home side deservedly win this match.
Five minutes in, Fairbairn’s free-kick was superbly turned round the post by Hall in the visitors goal, from the resultant corner the ball was partially cleared to Pittman who thundered a unstoppable shot into the net from 25 yards.
