It was a a terrific free-kick by Stephen Kelly that was tipped onto the bar by Hogarth but Andrew Shinnie, who had just been introduced to the play by David Martindale, nodded home the rebound into the empty net! WOW!!!

And the subs almost made an instant impact for Livingston.
Pittman plays in Smith down the right hand side of the box forcing Hogarth to make the block with his legs before Muirhead heads just wide as the home side search for what could be a vital goal.

Livingston introduce Lewis Smith and Scott Pittman for the final 15 minutes or so with Stevie May and Dan Finlayson making way. It must be getting colder as David Martindale has now put a jacket on!

Stephen Kelly clears the ball away from the Livingston goal after what legendary commentator Arthur Montford would have described as “a stramash” in the six yard box!

Brad Spencer finds his way into the book of Nick Walsh after a poor tackle on Kelly.
And with that a quadruple change for Falkirk. Off go Henderson, MacIver, Agyeman and Arfield. On come Nesbitt, Stewart, Tait and Ross. Phew!!!

There's the equaliser though! The hosts work the ball down the right and it eventually ends up at the feet of Cameron Blues in the Raith box. He sends his shot low into the bottom corner.
