Match Report

TTA report

Ayr had a few chances but overall they had no answer to the electric pace of Elliot. He carved his way between 2 defenders and his cross was turned into the goal by a panicked defender (11). Ayr wasted a good chance (23) then 3 defenders got into a tangle on the half-way line and Elliot ran on to score with a low drive (58).
