Ross County 1 Queen of the South 0

Ross County held on to beat Queen of the South and seal their first home win of the season thanks to a goal from Don Cowie in Division One.
County threatened early on, but Queens had the best first-half chance when Mike Mullen had his goalbound shot smothered by keeper Barry John Corr.
A fine cross from Michael Gardyne was headed in by Cowie and County went on to play some accomplished football.
But a Barry Callaghan shot rattled the post as Queens almost equalised.
