East Fife 3-2 Arbroath

Steven Tweed was the hero as nine-man East Fife beat Arbroath in a match dominated by goalkeeping blunders.

Arbroath's Scott Morrison was caught out by Douglas Cameron's wind-assisted cross, then Willie McCulloch fumbled a cross into David McGowan's pass.

Paul McManus' fierce volley squirmed under Morrison's body, but Steven Weir then lobbed McCulloch a minute later.

Kevin Fotheringham and Shaun Fagan were sent off either side of the breeak, but Tweed thumped in an 86th-minute winner.
