Brechin City 3 : 1 Greenock Morton - Brechin on the up

Brechin leapfrogged Morton and climbed into the top four thanks to a commanding 3-1 victory over their League One rivals at Glebe Park.

Alan Trouten also joined Morton's Declan McManus at the top of the goalscoring charts, converting the 11th-minute penalty that put them in front after Sean Crighton was adjudged to have handballed in the area.

Robert Thomson doubled Brechin's advantage from Colin Hamilton's pass following a set-piece in the 33rd minute, leaving Morton with a mountain to climb in the second half.

Any hope of a comeback was ended in the 62nd minute when Kyle McAusland received Bobby Barr's pass with a supreme first touch and added a third goal.

Morton at least managed a consolation goal seven minutes later when Ricki Lamie set up Tommy O'Ware but Brechin held on comfortably.
