Arbroath 1-0 Stenhousemuir

  • Published

Stewart Kean missed a 90th-minute penalty as Arbroath beat Stenhousemuir in the Ramsdens Cup quarter-final.

Scott Robertson broke the deadlock when he headed home after Alex Keddie flicked on player-manager Paul Sheerin's corner.

And the visitors' task was made harder when John Gemmell was shown a straight red for a foul on Stuart Malcolm.

Stenny were handed a lifeline when Keddie upended Kean in the box only to blaze his spot-kick over.
