Ayo Obileye fired Livingston into the last-16 of the Scottish Cup as the defender netted the game’s only goal against Ross County.His 16th minute spot-kick was the difference between the two sides, but the centre-back says he was more pleased with a clean sheet than his match-winning strike.The former Queen of the South man has formed a brilliant partnership in the heart of Livi’s defence alongside Jack Fitzwater with the Lions having conceded just four goals in their last seven games.That, Obileye says, means more to him than banging the goals in at the other end of the park.He commented: “It’s not about goals for me, it’s about the clean sheet.“We defended outstandingly.

We want to keep building on that and I thought the boys played excellently.“We knew County are a big physical side and they will put long balls into the box.

We knew they’d put us under pressure and the boys did brilliantly under that.“We work hard in training, off the pitch and in the gym to do these things, to be stronger and better prepared.

We want to work hard for each other, for Max in goals, and the less goals we concede, the more games we will win.”Obileye stepped up to mark after Bruce Anderson had been clumsily bundled over by Declan Drysdale.
