East Fife came from behind at Millburn Academy to beat Inverness Caledonian Thistle 3-1 and climb up the Scottish Women’s Championship table.

Caley Thistle came into the game in third place and were due to play the fixture at the Caledonian Stadium, but yellow weather warnings had relocated it to the astro at Millburn Academy. Iona McArthur had the Highlanders in front early on, but second half goals from Kerys Blyth, Brodie Rigby Wilson and Liz Corke saw the Fifers move up to fifth in the table, just three points behind their hosts in fourth.

Championship top two Rossvale and Ayr United won comfortably on the road 6-0 and 4-0 against Morton and Edinburgh City respectively, while Northeast side Westdyke climbed into third place with a 2-1 home win against Renfrew.

Dryburgh Athletic beat Hutchison Vale 7-0 at home to climb to sixth.
