Match Report


Source unknown.

Super sub Steven Hislop scored a double for his new club as Cowdenbeath crashed out of the Challenge Cup.

But it took Ross County until extra-time before they disposed of their Division Two opponents.

The Dingwall side had suffered a surprise defeat at home to Arbroath on Saturday.

And they again found it difficult against a side that themselves had suffered an opening-day defeat.

Both sides fired blanks in normal time, but it took former East Stirlingshire man Hislop's introduction as a substitute to settle the tie.

He replaced striker Mark McCormick late in the game.

And, six minutes into extra time, his low right-foot shot edged his side ahead.

A minute into the second period of extra time, Hislop pounced on a defensive mistake to add the vital second goal.
