Peterhead 2 : 0 Ayr Utd. - Peterhead cruise to victory

Peterhead did the damage in the space of six minutes midway through the second half as they saw off third-placed Ayr 2-0 at Balmoor.

There wasn't too much to excite The Blue Toon faithful in the first period, but affairs livened up after the interval when Jamie Stevenson fired Peterhead in front in the 56th minute.

Rory McAllister was the architect with a clever pass to the midfielder, who found the bottom-left corner.

Peterhead struck again shortly after when Ryan Strachan drove the ball past Davie Hutton following a fine pass by McAllister.

Having been competitive up to the first goal, Ayr floundered under the two-goal deficit and Peterhead cruised to victory.
