The home team had won their last four league outings, and boast the likes of ex-Scotland youth stars Abby Callaghan and Nicole Cairney.

The Fifers, currently bottom of the table, were tied at 1-1 with Craig Joyce’s team up until the injury-time, when Eleanor Smith headed home in a crowded penalty box to win the match for the Spiders. The 2-1 defeat keeps East Fife on four points, six behind Stirling University.
