Celtic came back from a goal down to lead at half-time in their Tennent’s Scottish Cup fourth-round clash with First Division Livingston at Almondvale.

In the 18th minute Livi defender David Mackay headed a Lee Makel free-kick past Artur Boruc with the Hoops’ defence static.

But in the 29th minute the Irishman equalised when he slammed home Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink’s knockdown from close range before Derek Riordan drove a tremendous shot past Colin Stewart in the second minute of added time.
