Renfrew crashed out of the South Challenge Cup after losing a nine-goal thriller against Yoker Athletic at Holm Park on Saturday.

The hosts raced into a 2-0 lead, thanks to goals from Corey Pearson and Evan Dunne, before Joe McKeown pulled one back for Renfrew.

Grant Gaddi scored a free-kick to make it 2-2 at the break but Yoker netted three times in quick succession midway through the second half, with Dunne bagging another and both Shaun Gallacher and Nathan Marriot joining him on the scoresheet.

It’s back to league action for Renfrew this Saturday as they host Ashfield at New Western Park, with kick-off at 2pm.
