Stenhousemuir had the
better of the early play and went close through both Henderson and McCutcheon. East Fife
took the lead after quarter of an hour. Steve Kirk played the ball forward to Matt Dyer,
who fired the ball home from ten yards. A minute later Dyer almost got a second but the
home 'keeper gathered the ball at his feet. The 'keeper again denied East Fife when he
tipped a Robert Prytz free kick over the bar. Then East Fife 'keeper Stewart pulled off a
great save from a volley. Matt Dyer got his and East Fife's second when he latched on to a
Paul Ronald pass and fired the ball into the net. Half time 2-0 to the Fife.
Stenhousemuir pulled a goal back on the hour mark through Little and then five minutes
later the same player got his second to tie the match at 2-2. With fifteen minutes
remaining East Fife were awarded a penalty and Robert Prytz made no mistake from the spot.
