A Michael Moore wonder goal halfway through the second half was enough to give Stranraer a deserved 1-0 win over Forfar.There were few chances in the first half but the home side did threaten with a Martin Jack opportunity but his effort was well blocked by Conor Grant in the Forfar goal.
And a mix up in the away side's box nearly gifted Darren McGeouch an opening but he fired over the bar.
The visitor's Ian Harty had two efforts thwarted by David Mitchell in the Stranraer goal.
But Moore's strike was enough to secure all three points when he found time and space on the edge of the box after 68 minutes before drilling the ball into the top left corner.
