Fife Rangers 2 – 2 St Michael’s DH

Fife brushed themselves down from last weeks poor performance to secure a 2-2 draw against high flying St Michaels D H.

The home side looked in good shape following last weeks defeat to Beeches and took the game to a side who are sitting pretty in 5th place in the Premier League.

It was the away side who took the lead though, when Dowd skipped past two players with ease before squaring for Faulkner (15)  to slot the ball home from six yards.

Rangers then replied with a dubious goal, Neary (28) slotting home when the striker looked suspiciously offside.

St Michaels then retook the lead on the stroke of half time when Dowd went on another impressive run before lofting the ball to the back post for Healy (44) to head home.

The blues came out well in the second half and showed good character to get back into the game when Clarke (59) headed home from a corner for what was only his second goal of the season.

Chances were few and far between in the closing stages and with it the game ended with St Michaels staying in fifth place and out of contention for the league.

Fife remain bottom and face a tough task at home to Cronton Villa next week.
