Edinburgh Churches League
St Mary's Metropolitan 9 Carrubbers 2 (att 6)
St Mary's Metropolitan are in a three way battle at the top of the Edinburgh Churches League, and while the teams in first and third were playing each other they needed a win to keep their title challenge going.
Three goals in a five minute spell, about a quarter-of-an-hour into the game, removed any doubt about the outcome.
By half time the home side's lead was 4-1. More St Mary's goals followed after the break, although Carrubbers at least had the consolation of scoring a goal in each half.
Venues in Edinburgh's Saturday morning league tend to be allocated week to week rather the teams having a regular 'home' ground. This was at Wester Hailes Education Centre, which stages games most weeks.
It's a standard 3G set up, with an enclosed and floodlit pitch designed for rugby as well as football. A spectator area runs the full length of one side.
