TWO second half goals gave DALBEATTIE STAR a narrow 3-2 South League win over Stranraer who had to play the second half with 10 men after Craig Bradley was red-carded for foul and abusive language just on the interval.

The Stair Park side were leading 2-1 at the turn after losing a 17th minute goal knocked home by on-loan player Jack Steele. But Stranraer came back and Angus Cochrane headed the equaliser in 31 minutes and then sent a left foot shot into the net six minutes later.

Star bounced back and Roman Soltys was set up by Steele for the equaliser on the hour mark and Scott Milligan hit the winner 14 minutes from time.

ST CUTHBERT WANDERERS opened their account with a 2-0 win over Abbey Vale with Adam Johnstone shooting home in 15 minutes and Jack Nixon bundling in a corner in the 60th minute.

Champions THREAVE ROVERS scored two late goals for a 3-3 draw against Mid Annandale who went ahead in 30 minutes through a Nathan Muir goal. But Andrew Donnelly levelled in 38 minutes. Then Robbie Dodd 45 minutes and Chris Norvel , 49 min put Mids 3-1 up before Sean Milligan, 72, and Darren Kerr 83, forced a draw.
