Dundee striker Leigh Griffiths scored twice as the First Division side sealed a place in the Alba Cup semi finals. The visitors went ahead on 10 minutes when Griffiths benefited from a lucky ricochet, ran through and shot past Stirling Albion keeper Scott Christie. Griffiths scored his second after 26 minutes when he tucked away Richie Hart's cut-back from the right wing.
Albion pinned Dundee back after the break but could only manage a last-minute penalty from Stewart Devine.
