Scottish League Two roundup: Elgin City edge out Annan Athletic

Sports Mole rounds up the day's action in Scottish League Two, as Elgin City overcome leaders Annan Athletic in the top-of-the-table clash.

Elgin City moved to within three points of Scottish League Two leaders Annan Athletic with a 3-2 win this afternoon.

An eventful afternoon for Darryl McHardy started well when he netted for the home side on six minutes, before he levelled things up with an own goal before the half-hour mark.

Elgin regained their advantage just before the break through Brian Cameron before Craig Gunn struck in the second period.

The league leaders reduced their deficit in stoppage time through Matthew Flynn.

Craig Watson's second-half strike cancelled out Jonathan Page's early opener as Arbroath came from behind to draw 1-1 at home to East Fife, who stayed third with the result.

Two goals inside five minutes before the hour mark from David Verlaque and Steven Doris were enough for Stirling Albion before Ewan McNeil struck a consolation for Berwick.

Clyde overcame Montrose 3-1 at Broadwood with David Marsh opening the scoring on 26 minutes.

Michael Bolochoweckyj added a second 10 minutes later before Gary Fraser responded for the visitors in the second half.

However, the points were made safe through Scott McLaughlin on 71 minutes.

Max Wright scored in stoppage time for East Stirlingshire to give them a 2-1 win over Queen's Park at home.

David McKenna had earlier opened the scoring for the victors before Sean Burns levelled up 11 minutes from time.

However, it was Wright who had the final say to give the bottom side an important three points at home.

Results in full: Arbroath 1-1 East Fife, Berwick 1-2 Stirling, Clyde 3-1 Montrose, East Stirling 2-1 Queen's Park, Elgin 3-2 Annan.
