AUCHINLECK TALBOT cruised into the semi-finals of the Junior Cup with a 2-0 away win over Carnoustie Panmure.
Willie Lyle opened the scoring after 14 minutes, coolly rolling the ball low inside the post, before Graham Wilson rounded off the scoring shortly before half time.
Talbot are joined by Lochee United - who beat Beith 4-1 - in the semi-finals. The other two will be decided this weekend as Kirkintilloch Rob Roy take on Wishaw and Hurlford United face Bo'ness United in a replay.
In the Super League Premier Division, GLENAFTON ATHLETIC missed the chance to close up on their rivals at the top of the table as they drew 1-1 with league-leaders Kilwinning Rangers.
Bryan Boylan gave the Buffs a half time lead at Loch Park but Chris Dallas found the net to rescue a point for Craig McEwan's side.
It was a similar story at Valefield as CUMNOCK drew with Kilbirnie Ladeside as Paul Burns scored after Jon Scullion had put Kilbirnie ahead.
The results mean Glens are 13pts behind Kilwinning in sixth-place while Cumnock are now 7pts clear of the bottom two.
In the First Division, KELLO ROVERS remained in 11th place after a 3-0 defeat to Cumbernauld United.
The fight for promotion in the Ayrshire District League is hotting up with LUGAR BOSWELL THISTLE now just three points off a play-off place.
The Rosebank Park side have four games in hand on Maybole and five in hand over Ardrossan Winton Rovers after completing back-to-back 5-3 wins over the pair this weekend.
Winton were on the receiving end on Saturday as Luger hit 34 league goals in their 11 matches.
CRAIGMARK BURNTONIANS remained in second, now six adrift of Irvine Victoria, after their match at home to Whitletts Victoria was postponed and MUIRKIRK are still bottom despite a 2-0 win over Saltcoats Victoria.
