Match Report
Williamson fires Rovers through Iain Williamson headed a last-minute winner complete Raith's comeback and secure a 3-2 win over East Fife in the Co-operative Insurance Cup first round. East Fife scored after five minutes when Lloyd Young robbed Mark Campbell in the box and his cross was rifled into the roof of the net by Robert Linn. A quick free-kick by Scott Thomson then found Paul McManus provided the cross for David Muir to head home in the 19th minute. But Rovers piled on the pressure and Gregory Tade found Allan Walker, who slotted the ball into the bottom corner in the 57th minute. Tade then pounced on Craig Wilson's through ball after 75 minutes and lifted the ball into the net to level. Then with just seconds remaining, Graham Weir's deep cross was headed into the net by Williamson to send Raith into the second round.
