Clyde boss praises heroes after play-off hopes were rescued at Peterhead

Clyde boss Jim Duffy praised two key moments as his side fought from a goal down to bag a last-gasp equaliser that keeps their League One relegation play-off hopes alive.

Cameron Salkeld netted a stoppage-time leveller at relegation rivals Peterhead that keep the basement side five points behind them, with six to play for.

Peterhead co-boss Jordon Brown's 27th-minute strike looked like cutting the deficit to two points ahead of this weekend's games, and could have doubled their advantage just after the hour-mark when Kieran Shanks had a penalty saved by Ryan Mullen.

That left the Bully Wee needing just a point from their remaining two games to guarantee the play-off slot, as they head to champions Dunfermline this weekend.

Boss Jim Duffy told the club’s website: “We understood with the magnitude of the game that it was going to be one of those days and you just had to roll your sleeves up.

“There were two massive moments in the game – Ryan’s penalty save, which was outstanding, and Cammy’s goal, which was magnificent.

“I don’t know when we last scored a last-minute goal to gain something from the game, but certainly it’s not something I can remember since I’ve been here.”
