Greenock Morton 1-2 Ayr United: Visitors remain top after extending unbeaten start

Mark McKenzie celebrates scoring Ayr United's second at Cappielow

Ayr United remain the frontrunners in the Scottish Championship after maintaining their unbeaten start with a victory over Greenock Morton.

Dipo Akinyemi thundered in a first-half opener before the forward turned provider for strike partner Mark McKenzie, who slotted in a second.

Robbie Muirhead pulled one back for the hosts, but the late close-range header was ultimately a consolation.

The defeat sees Morton drop to sixth, while Ayr hold a one-point lead.
