Andy Winter was Hamilton's hero as he earned them a first win in eight attempts as they bagged a narrow victory over 10-man Morton at New Douglas Park.
Winter's fourth goal of the season gave the Lanarkshire side their first league win since October 18 in Inverness, though they were made to work for it by a Morton side that slipped to a second league defeat, having been undefeated in 10 before losing against Partick Thistle last weekend.
Ton's task was made more difficult in 83 minutes when captain Grant Gillespie was sent off for a second booking, as they slipped to a second league defeat on the bounce.
