Livingston 2 Motherwell 3

It was the first time they had won at the stadium and it took a second-half strike from Richie Foran to give them the points.

But Terry Butcher's side should have won more comfortably as they gifted Livingston their two goals.

It took Motherwell just 40 seconds to signal their intent. A corner from Kevin McBride was met at the near post by Scott McDonald, but his header drifted just a foot wide.

It was the signal of things to come. David Clarkson crashed in a 25-yard shot which Roddy McKenzie turned over the top with Livi on the ropes.

Motherwell were in total control, and the the inevitable goal came after just 11 minutes. Clarkson headed on a Foran cross and McBride volleyed home atthe back post.

But Motherwell were to pay the price for not taking their chances as they lost two avoidable goals before half-time.

Livi snatched an equaliser eight minutes from the break after Craigan slipped in his own area under pressure from Burton O'Brien. The midfielder kept his cool to loft the ball over a stranded Gordon Marshall and bring his team level.

Motherwell tossed away another goal in injury-time in the first half. Marshall was caught in possession by Colin McMenamin as he was slow to deal with a Craiganback-pass and Stuart Lovell crossed for Jim Hamilton to head home.

Livingston goalkeeper Roddy McKenzie was at fault when Motherwell equalised five minutes into the second half when he was slow to get down to a low shot from Scott McDonald which crept in at the corner.

The winning goal came after 72 minutes when a Scott Leitch shot broke off a defender and Foran lashed it home.
