Ayr Utd 1-2 Livingston
Robbie Muirhead struck a dramatic stoppage-time winner as Livingston leapfrogged Ayr into second place in the Scottish Championship following a 2-1 victory at Somerset Park.
With leaders Falkirk having moved five points clear after their 2-0 win at Morton on Friday night, the chasing pair were looking to keep up the pressure.
Danny Wilson broke the deadlock for Livingston in the 33rd minute, rising highest to head home Muirhead’s corner, before substitute Marco Rus levelled for Ayr with 17 minutes left.
But Ayr suffered a first defeat in nine games when Muirhead converted a free-kick in the sixth minute of added time to move Livi four points behind Falkirk.
