Jonathan Afolabi’s penalty denied Queen of the South a first win in nine Ladbrokes Championship games after a 1-1 draw at Dunfermline.

Gary Oliver gave the visitors the lead after just three minutes, picking the ball up and drilling a low shot beyond Dunfermline goalkeeper Owain Fon Williams.

It was almost 2-0 moments later as Stephen Dobbie fired a shot inches wide from Lewis Kidd’s cross.

Queen of the South had goalkeeper Ross Stewart to thank for preserving the lead as he produced a superb reaction save to keep out Euan Murray’s header.

Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
