Mitchel Frame opened the scoring for Livingston with his first-ever goal for the club. Just after half-time, Joel Nouble equalised for Livingston, bringing hope back to the home fans. However, Dan Finlayson’s unfortunate own goal put Aberdeen back in the lead.

Muirhead’s stunning equaliser came from 22 yards out, curling into the top corner of the net. “Robbie Muirhead’s spectacular equaliser left Livingston clinging on to their William Hill Premiership status,” remarked a commentator on the match.

Despite the draw, Livingston sits at the bottom of the Relegation group, eight points behind Kilmarnock. A win for Kilmarnock against Dundee United would seal their fate and relegate them. Meanwhile, Aberdeen remains second in the league after this match.

During the game, Toyosi Olusanya missed a significant chance that could have changed the outcome. The early stages were notable for this strong contender for miss of the season from him.

Livi twice fought back to prevent Aberdeen from claiming a hat-trick of league victories for the first time since last season’s campaign began. A win would have all but secured Aberdeen’s top-flight status, but they could still be safe by Saturday night.

The match featured three half-time substitutions for Livingston as they sought fresh legs to keep up with a determined Aberdeen side.
