That's nothing compared to Livi's run though. TWENTY-TWO games in all competitions. FT: Livingston 1-1 St Mirren Bottom side Livi move a point closer to Kilmarnock in 11th. Catching Neil Mc Cann's men is not beyond them, with just three points the difference. St Mirren remain a distant eight points ahead after 22 games played. Livingston 1-1 St Mirren In this game, yes. And maybe in the season at the foot of the table. Had this Robbie Muirhead strike dropped an inch or two lower, St Mirren were done and Livi were heading for a long-awaited win. Everything looks and feels a lot different now.

Credit to St Mirren for fighting back, but I think they got out of jail there. Livingston 1-1 St Mirren Alex Gogic's late, late header extends Livi's long, long winless run. That goal could prove to be a seismic moment in both sides' league seasons. Livingston 1-1 St Mirren Oh my word.

Livingston 1-1 St Mirren Alex Gogic slams into a firm but fair challenge and it's celebrated like a goal from the away end. Emotions boil over seconds later between Killian Phillips and Mahamadou Susoho and the classic double booking follows. Livingston 1-1 St Mirren Four minutes added, btw. Livingston 1-1 St Mirren Alex Gogic whips up the away end and demands his team-mates to get the ball back to the centre spot quickly. He wants a winner. Alex Gogic And an equaliser for the visitors!

Livingston 1-0 St Mirren St Mirren debutant Jake Young makes good contact with a header but watches Jerome Prior tip over. Corner to the visitors. .. Livingston 1-0 St Mirren Brilliant goalkeeping from Jerome Prior to come out and claim under pressure in the Livi goal. St Mirren are running out of runway. Livingston 1-0 St Mirren The away support scream for a penalty for handball on Ryan Mc Gowan, but the Livi man cuts out Evan Mooney's ball with his face/head.

Livingston 1-0 St Mirren Dan Nlundulu's cross across the face of goal is begging to be put in, but nobody is there for St Mirren. Connor Mc Lennan goes into the book seconds later for a clear foul out wide. He's now coming off for Brooklyn Kabongolo. Robbie Muirhead's night is also over, making way for Alex Tamm. Livingston 1-0 St Mirren Wow, another excellent attempt from goalscorer Robbie Muirhead.

Robbie Muirhead (left) scored his fifth goal of the season and first since August At a glance Second-half Muirhead goal gives Livingston lead Gogic heads St Mirren equaliser with minute of normal time left Bottom side Livingston move to within three points of Kilmarnock Livingston moved to within three points of Kilmarnock at the foot of the Scottish Premiership but were denied their first victory in 22 games by Alex Gogic's late equaliser for St Mirren. Until then, Robbie Muirhead's precise finish 10 minutes after the break looked to be enough to end an 11-game run at home without a win with only their second Premiership win of the season. The hosts would have been determined to avenge Saturday's Scottish Cup defeat after a penalty shootout against the same opponents, but that late body blow means the Paisley side remain eight points clear of Livingston in third bottom spot. It was more blood than thunder early on, with Livingston defender Daniel Finlayson and St Mirren midfielder Killian Phillips both receiving early treatment for cuts among a plethory of injury stoppages. If familiarity breeds contempt, it certainly did not breed quality football. Half an hour had passed before Mikael Mandron fashioned the first effort on target, albeit shooting straight at Livingston goalkeeper Jerome Prior, and the striker should have done better when heading over from six yards shortly after. The game had burst into life as it entered hefty stoppage time and Conor Mc Menamin, who had started in midfield in place of Oisen Smyth, had a low drive from close range superbly pushed wide by Prior. However, it was Livingston who closed the first half by missing the best chance yet, as Muirhead had the goal at his mercy from Lewis Smith's cutback, but his header was cleared off the line by Richard King. Despite the loss of Scott Arfield and Cristian Montano to injury at half time, Livingston started the second half the better and their pressure led to the breakthrough. Joshua Brenet's looping cross found Muirhead unmarked at the back post and the striker chested it down before firing in off the far post. Having scored Livingston's 16th Premiership goal of the season, Muirhead came close to another with a curling shot off the top of the crossbar. However, the hosts went started defending deeper and, when Gogic was left unmarked as he rose to a Scott Tanser cross, they were undone.
