Lewis Vaughan scored a last-gasp winner as Raith Rovers returned to the top of the cinch Championship with a 2-1 victory over Arbroath.

The visitors opened the scoring in the 19th minute when Aidan Connolly drilled in from eight yards.

Basement side Arbroath equalised on the half-hour mark when Jermaine Hylton slammed home from the penalty spot after they were awarded a spot-kick for handball.

Arbroath looked like they would hang on for an unlikely point but Rovers snatched victory deep into stoppage time when Vaughan’s effort deflected in.
