Livi - Road to the Petrofac Final

We take a look back at Livingston's journey to this season's Petrofac Training Cup final

Livingston play Alloa Athletic on Sunday in the final of the 2014/15 Petrofac Training Cup.
 
In Round 1, Livi clawed back a two-goal deficit at Palmerston to take their tie against Queen of the South into extra time. In the additional period, super sub Myles Hippolyte put Livi ahead only for Michael Paton to equalise soon after.
 
With the tie looking destined for penalties, David Robertson beat the offside trap and finished from close range to book his side a place in Round 2.
 
The West Lothian club brushed aside Championship leaders Hearts in Round 2. A Jordan White double in addition to goals from Hippolyte and Robertson saw the Lions run out 4-1 winners.
 
It took an extra time winner from Hippolyte to secure Livi's spot in the semi-finals, with the young striker latching on to a fantastic through ball dispatch Peterhead at Balmoor.
 
Livi welcomed Stranraer to Almondvale for the semi-final. The tie finished 1-1, and with no goals in extra time, it took penalties to decide the tie. Darren Jamieson was the hero for the home side, saving from Anthony Marenghi took book his side a place in the final.
