Full time | Ross County 1–2 Motherwell (Shaw; Cole, Mugabi)
Four minutes of added time
84' Defensive change for Motherwell now, as Lamie comes on for Cole.
76' Spittal's drilled shot from the corner of the box takes a deflection on it's way out for a corner, but Gardyne's floated delivery comes to nothing.
76' Mckay replaces Vigurs in an attacking change for the hosts.
72' Motherwell take the lead
The Steelmen are in front, and it's Bevis Mugabe who has given them the advantage.
It is a frustratingly simple goal for County to concede, as all he has done is find a yard of space from a corner to head inside the far post.
72' Motherwell change – Smith comes on for Long.
70' Paton shoots just wide from outside the box.
69' Watt shoots hard and low – Laidlaw stops it, and gathers the ball in at the second attempt.
69' Double change for County, as Shaw and CHarles-Cook are replaced by Gardyne and Spittal.
61' Charles-Cook does well to intercept a ball across the defence, and immediately tries to move forward.
He plays in Shaw, who is forced on to his weaker foot but still forces a good save out of Kelly.
54' Crawford has a shot 25 yards out, but it is always rising and ends up going over the bar.
51' Cole draws Motherwell level
The visitors have equalised through Devante Cole, and Laidlaw will want that one back.
He looked to have a shot from Tony Watt covered, but he could not keep hold of the ball and Cole pounced to turn it home.
The second half is under way
Half time thoughts
There hasn't been many chances to speak of since the goal, but as long as the Staggies are in front they won't be complaining.
It was a brilliant bit of play from Hylton for the goal, and good anticipation from Shaw to follow it up.
Charles-Cook has looked like a nuisance, but he has strayed offside too often – if he can adjust the timing of his runs then he could have a lot of joy in the second half.
Even if he doesn't, County would be quite content to see out a quiet second half and claim all three points, so they have to make sure they're at it defensively.
Half time: Ross County 1–0 Motherwell
35' The game has just settled down since the goal. Charles-Cook looks like a threat, but he has strayed offside a few times, bringing an early end to some attacks.
14' Shaw sends Staggies in front
Ross County have the lead, and it is all down to Jermaine Hylton.
The ball was played forward for him to chase, but a brilliant touch in mid-air takes it past Gallagher and puts him through on goal.
Kelly gets a hand to his shot, but cannot take it in, allowing Oli Shaw to run through and find the net with a tap in.
12' Crawford finds some space outside the box for the visitors and it eventually finds it's way to Cole, forcing Laidlaw to charge down the 'Well striker's shot. Good work from County's keeper.
7' Charles-Cook has been very direct so far, and he is posing Motherwell some problems as a result, but so far County have not managed to test the gloves of Kelly.
We have kick off in Dingwall!
20 minutes to kick off
