Miles Storey's curling effort earned Inverness a draw

Dunfermline Athletic stuttered in their pursuit of Hearts in the Scottish Championship as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Inverness Caledonian Thistle.

Kyle Turner fired in a fine first-half opener for Stevie Crawford's side.

But Miles Storey's beautiful curling shot hauled Inverness level in the Highlands as John Robertson's side came to life after the break.

Dunfermline stay second, but are now five points behind leaders Hearts, having played a game more.

Inverness, meanwhile, remain seventh but are just three points adrift of the final play-off place.

Dunfermline manager Stevie Crawford: "Really pleased with the first-half performance. We created a number of chances. Inverness had a decent spell and put us under pressure in the second half, but we responded well and tried to win the game."

Inverness CT manager John Robertson: "It was a very good game. We started slowly and didn't quite get going. We battled back into it. We tweaked the system at half-time and it was a different game, we totally dominated the second half."
