  1. 'A lot of positives to take' - Murraypublished at 19:32 British Summer Time 15 July 2023

    FT: Raith Rovers 1-1 Dunfermline (2-4 pens)

    Raith Rovers manager Ian Murray tells Viaplay: “Certainly not [a nice outcome], it’s a lottery when it gets to that point.

    “Football is about relationships between players and it takes time for that to come through.

    “Lots of positives for us and stuff to get better at and tidy up on.

    “We dominated the second half but their goalie pulled off some great saves too.

    "We look forward to Tuesday night here, another home game, and we try and win that one.”

  2. 'A big two points already' - McPakepublished at 19:27 British Summer Time 15 July 2023

    FT: Raith Rovers 1-1 Dunfermline (2-4 pens)

    Dunfermline manager James McPake tells Viaplay: “We’re delighted with the two points.

    “Last year we went out losing a penalty shootout so it’s a big two points.

    “Reflecting on the game, I don't know that any team deserved to win it so if it was a league game a draw would have been a fair result.

    “Lots of positives, we looked a real positive on the break or when we got forward quickly."

  3. Todd: 'I wanted to take a penalty'published at 19:24 British Summer Time 15 July 2023

    FT: Raith Rovers 1-1 Dunfermline (2-4 pens)

    Some game that was. Cracking penalties to round it all off too.

    Matthew Todd, the winning penalty scorer, tells Viaplay he "wanted to put right" a few penalty misses from last season and reveals he "asked the manager" if he could take one.

    "It's always nice to get one over Raith, eh?" he finishes on when quizzed on the Fife bragging rights.

    Fair enough indeed.

    The first Fife derby of the season goes the way of Dunfermline.

    I asked earlier, but has your opinion changed?

    Thumbs up for Raith Rovers winning the shootout

    Thumbs down for Dunfermline getting it done

    Lewis McCann's long-range freekick is right at the keeper. Decent strike but too central.

    The bonus point penalty shootout will be required!

    It's understandable with it being the first competitive game of the season but it feels like the energy levels have dropped off in the last 10 or 15 minutes.

    A goal now would almost certainly be a winner.

    Raith Rovers continue to pile on the pressure as this game edges closer towards a penalty shootout for that all-important bonus point.

    Then again, Dunfermline opened the scoring after a wave of attacking from the hosts.

    It's a bit scrappier now than it has been with fouls beginning to break the play up in the middle of the park.

    A strong tackle in the middle of the park downs Jamie Gullan as a result of a 50/50.

    The ref flashes a booking in the direction of Sam Fisher for his troubles.

    It's getting tasty.

    Liam Dick towers above everyone else to bullet a header towards goal but Mehmet got a strong hand on it to tip it over.

    It's a cracker of a game we've got on our hands here now.
