Andrew Barrowman's first-half strike was enough to give Ross County victory at high-flying Falkirk.

Barrowman provided a left-footed finish from six yards after 27 minutes to give the Staggies their first win in six league games.

Scott Morrison had almost opened the scoring five minutes earlier for County but he was denied by home goalkeeper Robert Olejnik, who also saved well from Iain Vigurs.

Steven Pressley's side had their chances but Mark Millar shot wide and Martin Scott and Mehdi Khalis also missed the target with headers from inside the penalty area.

The result sees Falkirk remain third in Division One and six points adrift of second-placed Dunfermline and seven behind leaders Raith after they also lost.
