Match ends, Stirling Albion 2, Peterhead 1.
Stirling Albion 2-1 Peterhead
- From the section Football
Andrew Stirling's late goal gave Stirling Albion their first home victory in 10 months against Peterhead.
The League One bottom side fell behind when Rory McAllister's deflected free-kick evaded Callum Reidford.
Lewis Coult levelled matters with a right-foot drive - his first goal for the club.
And, after Gary McDonald had hit the crossbar for Peterhead, Coult set up Stirling for the tap-in that proved to be the winning goal.
