Ross County 2 Greenock Morton 1
Ross County fought back from a goal down to book their place in the last eight of the Alba Challenge Cup.
Morton's Stevie Masterton broke the deadlock in the 63rd minute when he fired home a loose ball from 15 yards.
But Paul Lawson scored with a stunning 25-yard drive in the 68th minute after fellow sub Michael Gardyne teed him up.
The winner came two minutes later when Garry Wood bundled the ball over the line from close range following a deep cross from Paul Di Giacomo.
