Arbroath 6 : 2 Albion Rovers FC - Two keepers off as Albion are hit for six
Posted Saturday, August 06, 2011 by PA
Albion had both of their goalkeepers sent off as they suffered a 6-2 demolition at the hands of Arbroath.
First-choice shot-stopper Derek Gaston was dismissed inside five minutes for a professional foul on Lee Sibanda. Substitute Chris Fahey's first task was to pick Paul Sheerin's penalty out the net.
Sibanda doubled the lead for the hosts shortly afterwards with a curling left-footed effort.
Chris Boyle incredibly levelled the scores with two close-range efforts in quick succession for the visitors.
However, Stuart Malcolm converted a corner seconds after the restart before Kieran McAnespie scored in similar fashion to restore Arbroath's two-goal advantage.
Fahey repeated Gaston's error by seeing red for a challenge on Sibanda, and Sheerin powered in his second penalty.
Without a recognised goalkeeper, the nine men of Albion held out well until the 80th minute when Lee Bryce completed the scoring with a shot into the bottom corner.
