Fife Rangers 4 – 2 Cronton Villa

Fife took revenge over Cronton this weekend by securing their second victory of the season with a 4-2 victory at Crab Lane.

The home side went into the game with good confidence following a decent run of results and avenged their previous 8-3 thrashing to a Villa side sitting in 9th place.

Rangers took the lead courtesy of a Padget free-kick (24) and this was soon followed by a quick brace from Farrell (28, 36).

The away side didn’t know what had hit them, but replied with a strike on the stroke of half time following good build up play.

Into the second half, the away side pulled another one back when Jones (52) rose highest to head the ball home from a corner.

It was all too familiar territory for Fife, but the home side rallied and secured victory when Gould (82) scored his first of the season with a cool strike in off the upright.

The result leaves Fife rooted to the foot of the table but gives Fannon’s side good confidence in which to build on for the rest of the season.
