Five-star Stirling Uni get back on track with statement win over Tranent
dailyrecord.co.ukBy Andrew Robson The University of Stirling hit Tranent Juniors for five goals at Forthbank on Wednesday evening as they continued to push at the top end of the Lowland League.
Tranent would take an early lead through Aiden Walsh after early pressure from the away side.Stirling came close to an equaliser through Calum Rae’s free header, but it sailed wide of the post and minutes later Fry saved well from a similar Tranent effort.Two quick-fire goals on the half-hour mark flipped the game.
First Jarvis stole the ball high up the pitch, slipping the ball into Ben Maciver-Redwood who found the bottom corner.Then, following brilliant work from James Russell, Maciver-Redwood raced down the right-hand side and whipped in an excellent cross for Calum Rae who found the roof of the net from close range.With all the momentum now with the hosts they pushed for a third before halftime.
Ciaran McAninch went close from the edge of the box, and then the winger delivered a series of corners that caused Kelby Mason and the Tranent defence problems.That pressure would pay off on the stroke of half-time.
