Match report

A good end-to-end cup tie.

In 9 minutes Brian Thomson put the visitors in front - he took a Christie pass and stroked the ball past Douglas.

In 61 minutes Jim Calder brought down Livingstons Sinclair but he saved Duthies penalty.

Livingston equalised in 71 minutes after a goalmouth scramble. It appeared to be a Noble own goal after a defensive clearance but the credit went to Livingstons Jason Young.

Despite intense Livingston pressure Inverness scored the winner 15 seconds from the end - a powerful Paul Cherry header after a Thomson cross.
