Substitute Vaughan’s Brace Lifts Raith Rovers Over Queen’s Park in Season Opener

GLASGOW (Interstat) — Substitute Lewis Vaughan scored twice to lead Raith Rovers to a 2-0 victory over Queen’s Park in a Scottish Championship match Tuesday at The City Stadium.

Vaughan broke a stalemate in the 55th minute and added a second later, capitalizing on assists from Ross Matthews and Louis Longridge. The result defied pregame projections that heavily favored the home side.

The match was marred by discipline issues, featuring six yellow cards. Queen’s Park’s task grew harder when defender Ricki Lamie was sent off with a red card in the 42nd minute.

The win gives Raith Rovers a perfect start to their league campaign, while Queen’s Park begins with a loss.
