Billy Mckay hits hat-trick as Inverness thrash Cove Rangers

Billy Mckay helped himself to a hat-trick as Inverness came from behind to rout Scottish Championship rivals Cove Rangers 6-1.

Eighth-placed Rangers got off to an encouraging start when Jack Sanders headed them into a 22nd-minute lead, but Mckay levelled before Danny Devine’s strike put the seventh-spotted hosts in front.
