Match Report
Queen's Park came from two goals down to snatch an unlikely Scottish Championship point at Ayr United.
The hosts led at Somerset Park thanks to Anton Dowds first-half double and looked to be on course for victory.
However, Alex Bannon pulled one back just before the hour and Ruari Paton scored five minutes into injury time to earn a draw.
Ayr stay fifth, and Queens seventh, with just a point separating them.
