Ayr United ended a run of six games without a win to sweep aside Alloa Athletic and send the visitors to the bottom of the Scottish Championship.

Former Rangers winger Tom Walsh was the star man, firing the early opener and setting up two other goals.

Alan Trouten equalised soon after with a stunning long-range finish.

However, Luke McCowan's cool double either side of an Aaron Muirhead penalty consigned Alloa to a third straight defeat.

Without a win in six games, they fall two points behind Arbroath, who won away to Greenock Morton.
