    Igor Rutkowski (58 mins)

    The visitors are in front thanks to the predatory penalty box instincts of Igor Rutkowski.

    Caoimhin McConnell's shot is well saved by PJ Morrison but Rutkowski is the first to react to smash home the loose ball.

    That's four games in a row that the in-form striker has found the target now.
