Ayr United 1 Ross County 1
The wait for a Scottish Championship win goes on for Ayr United and Ross County as the pair played out a draw at Somerset Park.
Ethan Walker's strike gave the hosts the lead after just two minutes as Ayr dominated the first half.
The equaliser came in the 49th minute as Jay Henderson found the right spot in the back of the net.
The Somerset Park side thought they had retaken the lead as a cross in from Scott McMann picked out Curtis Main, but the linesman called for offside after the ball went in.
Both sides looked for a late winner but came up short.
