Renfrew boss Jimmy Quigley believes there aren’t many sweeter feelings in football than netting a last-gasp winner.And he couldn’t have been happier for his star striker Ciaran Diver to manage just that after landing a decisive blow at the death to clinch the New Western Park side all three points against Yoker.After their impressive unbeaten run came to a disappointing end against Glasgow Perthshire last weekend, ‘Frew were determined to get back to winning ways on Wednesday night.The match couldn’t have started much worse, with the visitors taking the lead in the rain after just 90 seconds.Substitute striker Scott Morton managed to draw the hosts level after half-time, with midfielder Cameron Kerr managing the same after Yoker had retaken the lead.Diver saved the best for last, netting a dramatic strike with just a few minutes left on the clock to seal the victory.Delighted Quigley told Renfrewshire Live Sport: “It was a fantastic night for us.

You don’t get a much better feeling than a last-minute win in football.“The last few weeks we’ve started games poorly.“It happened against Glasgow Perthshire and we did the exact same against Yoker, giving our opponents something to hold on to.“The boys showed great character and resilience to keep battling right to the end.

Perthshire hit us with a suckerpunch late on, so it was nice to be on the other end this time around.“Scott Morton is only just back from injury but he’s looking lethal in front of goal again already.“I was really pleased for Ciaran too.

We joked together that he could have still have been playing the Perthshire game on Wednesday night and still not have scored.
