Michael Gardyne scored Ross County's winner at East End Park

Ross County came from behind to beat Dunfermline Athletic and stay clear at the top of the Scottish Championship.

On-loan Aberdeen striker Bruce Anderson slotted in a debut goal from a Faissal El Bakhtaoui pass just before the break having squandered a couple of chances.

But Billy Mckay converted after the break with the hosts calling offside, and Michael Gardyne slotted the winner.

With Partick Thistle and Falkirk both winning, Dunfermline are only four points off the foot of the table.

Dunfermline head coach Stevie Crawford: "The reality is we have lost the game and we have a couple of weeks now where we will be asking questions of ourselves.

"If we perform consistently to the levels we did in the first half, then we will give ourselves a real chance of winning games."

Ross County co-manager Stuart Kettlewell: "Results like this are massive - we know this is going to be the nature of the league, but what pleased us was the character.

"It was not good enough in the first half. We were angry with the players and they were probably angry with us. But they came together as a group in the second half and dug one out."
