Ton pull away

Morton extended their lead at the top of the Irn-Bru Scottish First Division to five points with a 2-1 win over Livingston at Cappielow Park.

Allan Moore's table-toppers took just 15 minutes to break the deadlock, Martin Hardie converting from six yards out after being teed up by Peter MacDonald inside the penalty area.

But the visitors, unbeaten in four matches coming into this clash, drew level shortly after the break when Anthony Andreu set up Iain Russell and the striker found the bottom corner from 25 yards.

They were level for just 15 minutes before MacDonald headed home his fourth of the season from Michael Tidser's left-wing cross to secure the Ton's seventh home league win of the season.
