Ross County booked their place in the semi-finals of the Scottish League Cup with a 2-1 win over Highland rivals Inverness Caley Thistle.
Jackson Irvine headed home a corner just before half-time at the Tulloch Caledonian Stadium and Michael Gardyne struck early in the second half with the aid of a deflection.
Greg Tansey pulled one back with a long-range effort 12 minutes from time but the Staggies held on to reach the last four of the League Cup for the first time in their history.
