Peterhead capped their first visit to Dumbarton with a 3-1 victory and the first side to win at the Sons' new Rock Stadium.

Dumbarton got off to a flying start with a goal after just five minutes before coming apart under pressure from the Highland club.

Andy Brown put them in front after slick work by Paddy Flannery and Joe Robertson set him up with a golden chance in front of goal.

Peterhead twice tested home keeper John Hillcoat before they drew level.

Martin Johnston saw the keeper parry a 30-yard drive and team-mate Ritchie Livingstone also brought a good save from the home keeper.

Iain Stewart raced through the Dumbarton back-line to level terms.

Hillcoat bravely dived to block his shot but Stewart recovered the ball and prodded it home.

Six minutes later, the Blue Toon went in front. Craig Yeats pounced as a loose ball dropped to his feet in a packed penalty area and made no mistake from close range.

Both side's squandered chances after that and it was left to substitute Craig Cooper to make the points safe with a goal in the final minute.
