Rossvale and Renfrew Ladies took advantage of Falkirk dropping points to close the gap at the top of the Barclays Scottish Women’s Championship on International Women’s Day.
Rossvale beat Inverness Caledonian Thistle 2-0 in the Highlands thanks to goals from Kirstin Harper and Emma Rogers, while in Renfrew Paige Henry continued her recent form with a 73rd-minute winner against Stenhousemuir after the visitors had levelled through Kyla Thomson just before half-time.
A storming second half by Dryburgh Athletic saw them come back from 2-0 down to snatch a point at the Falkirk stadium thanks to goals from Christie and Scobie, meaning Falkirk’s lead at the top of the table is cut to three points ahead of Renfrew.
Earlier Bonnyrigg Rose and Forfar Farmington played out a goalless draw in Angus and in Port Glasgow the match between Morton and Armadale Thistle was abandoned after a serious second-half injury to an Armadale player which required an ambulance to attend.
