Match Report

Stirling hit back

Late goals from Andrew Graham and Iain Russell ensured a 4-2 victory for Stirling away at Arbroath.

Stirling began the game well, scoring after just 13 minutes through an Andy Gibson header from David O'Brien's cross.

But on the stroke of half-time, Kenneth McLean equalised for Arbroath with a powerful penalty, after Andrew Graham had handballed in the area.

Just 18 minutes from time, Arbroath looked to have won the game as Mitchel Megginson converted James Redman's cross from close range to make it 2-1.

But three minutes later, Christopher Aitken converted a penalty, after he was hauled down by Marc McCulloch, to level the match.

And in the 81st and 83rd minutes, Graham and Russell both scored from close range to ensure an impressive Stirling turnaround.
