Annan Athletic........2 Stenhousemuir .......... 0
Peter Murphy hailed his scoring subs after they breathed life into Annan’s play-off push with a six-minute suckerpunch.
Scott Roberts collected Rabin Omar’s 84th-minute cross then slotted in from six yards.
And Conor O’Keefe’s first touch saw him curl home from 20 yards after goalie Alex Mitchell had frustrated Stenny.
Boss Murphy said: “Our keeper earned his money. I said after a tough game we’d need our subs to play a big part and they went on and got the goals.”
Stenny boss Brown Ferguson said: “I feel a bit hard done by.”
