Match ends, Dunfermline Athletic 5, Inverness CT 1.

Dunfermline recorded their first victory of the Championship season in some style as they thrashed Inverness Caledonian Thistle at East End Park.
Callum Smith set the tone, and Lee Ashcroft soon doubled the lead.
Iain Vigurs pulled a goal back for Caley but it was only a temporary reprieve as they fell to the foot of the table.
Joe Cardle put Dunfermline 3-1 up, and would add the fifth at the death after David Hopkirk also scored.
