Albion Rovers FC 0 - 1 Stirling Albion - McLeish the hero for Binos
Posted Saturday, January 14, 2012 by PA
Craig McLeish scored the only goal as Stirling shocked Albion to win 1-0, despite being reduced to 10 men late on.
Stirling went ahead after 11 minutes, McLeish picking the ball up on the edge of the area and drilling an unstoppable effort into the bottom corner.
Anthony Stevenson tested Stirling goalkeeper Callum Reidford on the stroke of half-time, but his rasping drive was tipped away.
The home side missed a sitter early in the second half, with Scott Chaplain shooting wide from six yards.
John Crawley almost doubled the lead 15 minutes from time, but his stunning effort hit the crossbar.
Crawley was dismissed in the final minute of normal time, given a straight red card for violent conduct, but Stirling held on to win.
