Elgin City secure place in William Hill League 1 play-offs after sensational Dajon Golding goal helps Borough Briggs club defeat Stranraer
A sensational goal - and a place in the play-offs.
Elgin City defeated Stranraer 3-0 to sew up a place in the League 1 play-offs.
The win and Spartans’ defeat at Bonnyrigg Rose means City are guaranteed a top four slot.
One of the best strikes seen at Borough Briggs for many a year helped the Black and Whites get the result they craved.
Dajon Golding produced a breath-taking solo effort which started midway inside his own half to net Elgin’s second goal.
Russell Dingwall had bulleted home a header to open the scoring on 34 minutes from a Jack MacIver corner.
Golding’s amazing effort followed seven minutes later and Mark Gallagher fired home the clincher with seven minutes to go.
It means Elgin will be involved in a play-off semi-final over two legs on May 6 and 10.
They could still finish third as they trail Edinburgh City by just a point, with a final regulation fixture away to East Fife next Saturday.
