Match ends, Airdrieonians 1, Ayr United 2.
Ayr United came from behind to beat Airdrieonians and stay top of Scottish League One.
Liam Watt turned inside from the left before curling a fine effort into the far corner to give Airdrie the lead.
Craig Moore had a header saved by goalkeeper Neil Parry but the Ayr man did find a leveller before the break, firing high into the net.
And Brian Gilmour's stunning drive midway through the second half ensured victory for Ian McCall's side.
