Berwick 1, Hearts 1

A fluke goal in the dying minutes earned Berwick Rangers a draw against a Hearts XI at Shielfield Park.

Trialist Pat Walker saw a close-range shot cleared off the line by Alan Lithgow in 85 minutes, but the ball bounced back off him into the net.

John Coughlin has now watched his new charges draw four of their five friendlies.

Berwick applied early pressure and Rob Manson was unlucky to side-foot over from a defence cutting cross delivered by 22-year-old new signing David Greenhill.

But there was no mistake in 21 minutes when an angled shot from David Armstrong found the target via the upright.
