Look to Erling Haaland at Manchester City as inspiration, says Airdrie boss as he feels side could have been more ruthless in Queen of the South draw

Rhys McCabe says his players need to look to Manchester City star Erling Haaland when it comes to taking chances after 10-man Airdrie were held to a 3-3 draw by Queen of the South.

The Diamonds may have struck three times in a six-goal thriller at New Broomfield to end a run of three straight defeats, but the player-boss felt his side didn't take enough of their chances and pointed to City's Norwegian hitman - who has scored 20 goals in 13 games already this season - as inspiration.

The sides shared four goals in the first half with Josh Todd firing Queens in front after just three minutes. Goals from Calum Gallagher - who became Airdrie's record goalscorer in the club's post-2002 era with his 44th strike for the club - and Callum Fordyce had Airdrie in front within 14 minutes before Harry Cochrane's stunning strike pulled Queens level in the 42nd minute.
