Robbie Crawford clips in the winning goal for Morton at Cappielow

Queen's Park missed the chance to go top of the Championship as Morton came from behind to win at Cappielow, keeping their play-off hopes alive.

Owen Coyle's side must now beat leaders Dundee at Ochilview next Friday to clinch the title, with the Dark Blues two points in front.

Malachi Boateng shot Queen's Park in front, but Grant Gillespie levelled from the penalty spot before half-time.

Robbie Crawford then dinked home to ensure Morton also have something to play for on the final weekend.

The Greenock side, who go to relegation-threatened Cove Rangers next, remain sixth but are just two points behind Partick Thistle in third.

The home team threatened through Crawford and Robbie Muirhead before Boateng curled a lovely shot into bottom corner.

Morton continued to press and Jai Quitongo was tripped by Marcel Oakley, allowing Gillespie to equalise.

The sides traded good chances before Crawford settled an absorbing contest with a cool finish from George Oakley's smart pass.
