Stranraer, who are still chasing their first win in the Scottish League One, fell at home to Rangers Colts and the Gers can read the report from the clash on the Rangers website here.
The most senior man in the Rangers Colts side was Eros Grezda, although the winger was not the influential player for the young Rangers’ side, as it was McPake and Barjonas who grabbed the goals to put the young Glasgow side through to the third round, where they have been drawn against Ballymena United, as per The Scottish Sun.
