East Fife 1-1 Elgin City

Scottish League Two bottom side Elgin City extended their winless run to nine games with a draw at East Fife.

Elgin dominated the early stages, with chances for Shane Sutherland and Marvin Andrews.

However, it was the home side who took the lead when Kevin Smith finished neatly from close range.

Dennis Wyness latched on to a Brian Cameron pass to level matters and the Fifers' Allan Walker and Elgin's Mark Nicolson came close in the second half.
