As a result, the Scots win the three match series 2-1.

Moran was on target right on the stroke of half-time, dispatching a fierce drag-flick into the bottom left hand corner to put the home side 1-0 up.

Five minutes after half-time, Moran executed a carbon copy drag-flick to put Scotland 2-0 up, much to the delight of the home support.

The Western Wildcats forward narrowly missed out on a hat-trick, his penalty flick striking the post.
