A hat-trick from Iain Russell helped Queen of the South to a resounding victory against Elgin City in the first round
of the League Cup.
The striker was on hand with a tap-in and Derek Lyle's close-range finish doubled their lead.
Daniel Carmichael teed up Russell for his second before the half-time interval.
And a volley from Russell followed by Lyle's second of the day completed the Scottish Championship side's rout.
