    This stadium has just exploded and Ethan Ross has emerged as Falkirk's hero.

    Surely, surely they won't throw this away now.

    The title and Premiership are firmly in their grasp.

    Livingston's destiny is now out of their hands. Even if they score twice, they would need a Hamilton Accies equaliser.

    It's a brutal blow for David Martindale's side but you wouldn't rule them out of coming up through the play-offs, if they can recover from tonight's heartache.

    It's a massive goal! You can see what it means to all the supporters here.

    They've put themselves in a far more commanding position.

    The excitement is palpable around the ground.

    GOAL FALKIRK 2-1 Hamilton Acciespublished at 59 mins

    Ethan Ross

    Ross at the double!

    Falkirk are heading back to the big time as it stands!

    It's a bit of a stramash in the box after a corner, but the ball sits nicely for Ross to leather the ball in from four yards out.

    Barry Maguire has come on for the injured Jamie Barjonas. Seconds later, Nikolay Todorov goes into the book.

    Elsewhere, Queen's Park have got a goal back against Raith Rovers. 2-1 now at Hampden.

    The sides trading chances here in Falkirk. Jamie Barjonas has also gone into the book.

    Moments later, Scott Arfield goes down in the box but the challenge from Dylan McGowan looked a good one.

    It's been a rollercoaster of emotions already for these home fans and this 45 looks likely to bring yet more.

    They were far more relaxed at half-time than seemed likely but that leveller, and the cushion of Livingston trailing, has eased a lot of tension.

    What they would give for a second goal.

    Despite trailing at the break, the Livingston players were applauded off the pitch by their fans as they had created more than enough chances in the first half to maintain hope a victory can be theirs.

    Thistle fans are also happy as they lead, although if they continue to give players like Cristian Montano and Robbie Muirhead space in the box it’s sure only a matter of time before the home side score.

  15. HALF-TIME Livingston 0-1 Partick Thistlepublished at 20:37 British Summer Time 2 May

    Drama in West Lothian as Livi are behind, when a win, as it stands, would see them clinch the title.

    A huge team talk for David Martindale.

    Equally important for Partick too, who can seal a playoff spot with a fourth-place finish - which a win guarantees them.

  16. HALF-TIME Falkirk 1-1 Hamilton Acciespublished at 20:34 British Summer Time 2 May

    An up and down free-kick, and an up-and-down half for Falkirk.

    It started terribly. Scott Robinson's tap-in put Falkirk down to second but Ethan Ross' free-kick has the Bairns back on top.

    There's sure to be more goals in this. Don't go anywhere.

    Robbie Muirhead does well to lay the ball back into Stephen Kelly's path, and he cracks the bar with a venomous edge-of-the-area strike.

    If we've learned anything during this Championship run-in, it's to expect the unexpected.

    Falkirk have a tighter grip on the title now but we've seen in the last 5 or so minutes how quickly things can change.

    Keep the drama coming!
