El Alagui earns Bairns a point

Farid El Alagui's equaliser three minutes from time salvaged a 1-1 draw for Falkirk at home to Ross County.

The visitors thought they had snatched the three points after Steven Craig had put them ahead with 15 minutes to go.

There were few chances in the first half and it was no surprise when the two teams went in goalless at the interval.

The deadlock was finally broken on 75 minutes through Craig, who got on the end of Mark Corcoran's cross to head home from close range.

But Ross County could not hold out and the Bairns grabbed a dramatic equaliser in the 87th minute, El Alagui meeting Dale Fulton's cross with his head to grab an improbable point for his side.
