| Comments | Match Report Report from the BBC. Cowdenbeath 0 Ross County 2 Second-half goals from Michael Gardyne and Paul Di Giacomo secured victory for Ross County on the opening day of the new First Division season. Newly-promoted Cowdenbeath struggled to create chances at Central Park. And Gardyne put the visitors in front in emphatic style with a flashing drive into the top corner after 52 minutes. Colin Cameron spurned a great chance to equalise when he headed wide and Di Giacomo converted Steven Craig's cross to seal the points for County. |
