Muirhead scores winning goal for Ayr
Posted Sunday, April 28, 2019 by PA
Aaron Muirhead scored the winning goal against his former club to keep Ayr in third and Partick in relegation play-off danger.
Miles Storey had already brought a save from goalkeeper Ross Doohan when Thistle opened the scoring in the 10th minute. Joe Cardle’s pinpoint cross was headed in by a diving Shea Gordon.
Storey fired into the side-netting shortly afterwards and it was all square on the half-hour when Liam Smith turned the ball home at the back post.
The visitors took the lead in the 56th minute. Muirhead powered in a header from a corner just moments after Ayr goalkeeper Jamie Sneddon had kept his side on level terms with a fine double save.
Partick forward Lewis Mansell came agonisingly close to an equaliser when he sent a header against a post with six minutes remaining but Ayr held on.
