Hat-trick for Bremner as young Scorries keep up 100% record
Jayden Bremner hit a hat-trick as Wick Academy maintained their 100 per cent record in SHFL Under 18 North with a comfortable 4-0 away victory over Rothes.
A tight pitch made it difficult for the young Scorries to get into their usual passing game and half-chances were squandered at both ends.
On 40 minutes Bremner latched onto a loose ball at the edge of the box and fired Wick into a half-time lead.
They started the second period with much more purpose. In the 63rd minute a through ball found Bremner and he smashed it home, and he completed his treble five minutes later with a fine finish from close range.
Louis Hancock sealed the win in the 89th minute after good build-up play.
Coach Derek Shearer said: “It’s never easy trying to play football on such a small pitch. The boys took a bit of time to adapt, but once they did they dominated the game.
“It was a great hat-trick by Jayden – he’s looking very sharp. Hopefully we’ll get a run of games now in what has so far been a very stop-start season for several reasons.”
