Carlisle United loan defender Max Kilsby scored his first goal for Annan Athletic in an emphatic win for Peter Murphy's men.

The teenager headed home the Galabank side's fourth in a 5-1 win over Albion Rovers.

Kilsby, 19, powered home a Chris Johnston corner in the 68th minute as Murphy's side an impressive Scottish League Two victory on Friday night.

It came in the first-year United pro's 16th first-team appearance for Annan, who climbed to fourth in the table.
