Deveronvale 0 Ross County 1
A Late goal from County midfielder John McGlashan earned the Dingwall side a win over a spirited Deveronvale outfit last night.
But Vale performed well after playing their second game in the space of 24 hours after losing out 4-2 to Livingston on Tuesday night.
In the 16th minute a dipping lob from Vale's Charlie Rowley dropped agonisingly over the crossbar.
At the other end Roy McBain's ball across the face of goal found no takers.
Deveronvale's James Milne then did brilliantly in the 38th minute to clear a net-bound effort from County trialist Derek McGill off the line with his head.
On the stroke of half-time Michael Geraghty's downward header bounced up on to the face of the crossbar with Jim Will in the Vale goal beaten.
An almighty scramble in the home goalmouth after 66 minutes again ended with Milne clearing the ball off his own line.
Jim Will then did well to tip a McGlashan header over the top as County went in search of that elusive opener.
And in the 81st minute County did find the net after a strong run from McGlashan.
He set up Gary Nicol and his shot rebounded off the base of the post to former Dundee midfielder McGlashan who stroked the ball into the empty net.
