Lee Miller leaves it late for Falkirk

Lee Miller's late strike earned Falkirk their first league win - 1-0 at home to Dumbarton.

Luca Gasparotto saved the home side from an early setback when he reacted quickly to clear David Smith's prod at goal.

Falkirk settled and forced Alan Martin into action. The goalkeeper moved smartly to repel John Baird's effort and then cut off a diving header from Myles Hippolyte.

When Luke Leahy headed against the crossbar in the second half for Peter Houston's men, it looked as if the breakthrough would never come.

But, in the 86th minute, Leahy crossed for Miller to slam in at the back post and snatch his side victory.
