Sam Stanton’s stoppage-time strike gives Raith dramatic win against Dunfermline
Posted Sunday, October 29, 2023 by PA
Sam Stanton struck at the death as second-placed Raith claimed the Fife derby spoils in a 1-0 victory over Dunfermline.
A dull game was heading for a goalless draw, but midfielder Stanton fired into the bottom right-hand corner three minutes into stoppage time to seal the points just as he did at East End Park two months ago.
After a poor first half, Rovers were grateful to Polish goalkeeper Kevin Dabrowski who pulled off a double save to deny Owen Moffat and then Aaron Comrie after the break.
Raith applied the pressure after that scare as the lively Lewis Vaughan tested Deniz Mehmet with a long-range strike, but Stanton struck late on to keep the pressure on cinch Championship leaders Dundee United.
