Albion Rovers 0- 2 Livingston: Livingston stretch lead at top with late Tosh clincher

LIVINGSTON increased their advantage at the top of the table to four points as ten-man Rovers slumped to defeat at Cliftonhill.

After a lively but goalless first half, Albion Rovers were dealt a double blow in 65 minutes when Phil McGrath was shown a straight red card for a last-man foul on Robbie Winters before Jim Hamilton slotted the spot-kick to give Livingston the lead.

There was no way back for the home side and Steve Tosh sealed victory in the final minute when he latched on to Rafa de Vita's through ball and calmly beat Derek Gaston.
