Match Report

Stirling effort seals point Stirling Albion came from behind twice to deny Stenhousemuir three points in a 2-2 draw at the Doubletree Dunblane stadium. Scott Davieson cancelled out Eric Paton's penalty and Iain Thompson looked to have won it for the visitors before Alan Cook fired home a late spot-kick. Stenhousemuir dominated the first half and Martyn Corrigan headed against the bar as Stirling struggled to keep the ball. They eventually buckled when Marc McCulloch fouled Andy Rogers and Paton converted the penalty. However, Stirling were brighter at the start of the second half and equalised when Scott Davidson found the net with a low shot. A neat finish from Thompson appeared to have won the match for Stenhousemuir but there was late drama when William Lyle was adjudged to have fouled Cook, who smashed home from the spot 89th minute.
