DIMITRIS Froxylias was the Sons hero tonight as his 37th minute 12-yard strike was enough to see off battling Brechin City.
The game, part of a double header with the Angus club, proved to be a difficult encounter for both teams due to the heavy pitch.
Sons started well and should have taken the lead on 28 minutes following a surging run by Kyle Hutton who set up Dimitris Froxylias but his shot was high and wide.
On the half-hour mark, Brechin City thought they had scored following a scramble in the Sons box, with the ball being hooked off the goal line just in time.
Seven minutes later Sons edged ahead, with ‘Jimmy’ making no mistake with his penalty box strike after good work by Andy Stirling.
This was Sons first league goal in over 732 minutes of action!
The second half proved to be drab, with very few chances created for both teams and Froxylias’s first-half goal proving to be enough for Sons to collect all three points.
