A last-gasp Kyle Jacobs strike saw Livingston leapfrog Partick and move up to third in the First Division.

Kenny Deuchar stooped low to meet Jonathan Brown's cross on the half-hour to head Livi in front.

Partick responded strongly and David Rowson was denied twice in quick succession by keeper Andrew McNeil.

Christie Elliot levelled after a scramble but Jacobs secured the victory with a stunning long-range volley that dipped past Scott Fox.
