Marenghi mauls Falkirk

Championship side Falkirk were dumped out of the Petrofac Training Cup as a single goal from Anthony Marenghi booked Stranraer's place in the semi-finals. The midfielder scored the only goal for the home side five minutes before the interval as Craig Malcolm's pass found him in enough space to fire home from inside the area. In a closely-fought encounter, Falkirk midfielder Craig Sibbald hit the crossbar in the second half before Luke Leahy went close for the visitors in the dying moments, but the favourites were unable to find a way back into the game.Stranraer's last victory over Falkirk came in the 1994 Scottish FA Cup, with the Division One side failing to take three points in any of their last seven clashes.
