Quickfire double rescues victory for Morton against Queen of the South
Two goals in as many minutes earned Morton a 2-1 victory over bottom side Queen of the South in the cinch Championship.
The visitors took the lead in the 59th minute through a long-range effort from Euan East, moments after Morton’s Gozie Ugwu had a header cleared off the line.
It took the hosts until 10 minutes from time to find an equaliser, Gavin Reilly popping up at the back post after a corner was flicked on.
And a minute later Cameron Blues scored what proved to be the winner from a fine Ugwu through ball to lift Morton away from the bottom of the table and up into sixth.
