Stranraer 1-2 Stenhousemuir

Second-bottom Stranraer suffered a fourth straight defeat as Stenhousemuir moved up to fifth in Scottish League One.

Mark Gilhaney slotted Jason Scotland's long ball into the bottom corner to give Stenny the lead.

Gilhaney returned the favour by setting up Scotland to fire home in the second half.

Ryan Thomson pulled one back from close range for the hosts late on, but it was too little too late.
