And, although Motherwell missed a series of half chances, it was the visitors who grabbed a 64th-minute consolation when Roshi ran on to a simple through ball and slotted past Michael Fraser.

Flamurtari responded with Roshi heading another Alviz corner onto the top of the bar and the woodwork came to the visitors' rescue again early in the second half when Devis Mema's low shot rebounded off the post.
