Loan Watch: Trott keeps clean sheet in win

Nathan Trott kept a clean sheet as Vejle BK recorded a crucial win to keep their place at the top of the Danish First Division.

Danish midfielder Kristian Kirkegaard scored the only goal of the game, as Vejle beat second-placed Hvidovre IF on Friday.

Consecutive wins for Vejle saw them move seven points clear at the top of the table, with Trott recording his 14th clean sheet of the season.

Trott and company have won 18 of their 28 matches, losing just five games in 2022/23.

Elsewhere, Brian Kinnear was unable to help his side avoid defeat in the first leg of their Scottish League One play-off.

Airdrieonians, who finished third in the table, took a 6-2 victory, with Justin Devenny, Rhys McCable (twice), Callum Smith, Aaron Taylor-Sinclair and Callum Fordyce all on the scoresheet for the hosts.

Falkirk will seek to overturn the four-goal deficit in their second leg, which takes place on Saturday 13 May and will hope home advantage plays its part in their bid for promotion.

Meanwhile, Nikola Vlašić fought valiantly to help his side pick up a point against Monza in Serie A on Sunday.

Vlašić, who played for 75 minutes, picked up an assist, setting up Antonio Sanabria who opened the scoring at Stadio Olimpico Grande just one minute into the second half.

However, Gianluca Caprari equalised with four minutes remaining to see Vlašić and company settle for a share of the spoils.

With 12 league wins this season, Torino remain in eleventh place and stay level on points with Monza, who sit in twelfth.
