Forfar Athletic 3-2 East Fife

Paul Lunan's extra-time strike in the 104th minute gave Forfar victory in the first round of the Challenge Cup.

The Loons went ahead through a Michele Lombardi header in the 26th minute but Paul Walker levelled with a spectacular shot from the edge of the box.

Craig O'Reilly made it 2-1 with another long range effort and East Fife looked set for the win until Stephen Tulloch fired home with five minute remaining.

Lunan was the hero when he collected a loose ball to coolly slot home.
