Forfar Athletic came from behind to earn a 2-1 win over Peterhead in the first leg of the Ladbrokes League 1 play-off final at Station Park on Wednesday.
Top scorer Rory McAllister gave the Blue Toon a third-minute lead but they had Michael McMullin sent off early in the second half and Gary Bollan's men took advantage.
Martyn Fotheringham fired home from distance and Michael Travis grabbed the winner 16 minutes from time to give Forfar a one-goal cushion to take to Balmoor for Saturday's second leg.
