Livingston boss Mike Ross was full of praise for his side's spirit and character as they netted two late goals in a 2-1 away win at Glasgow Women on Sunday.The Lionesses trailed heading into the final six minutes but a Lauren Evans header was followed by a 30-yard effort from Beth McKay in the closing stages to ensure Livi picked up their first-ever points in the SWPL2.The club often bagged themselves late decisive goals on their way to the SWF Championship title last term and the new gaffer confessed he was delighted they repeated the trick again at the weekend.He commented: "First and foremost, I’m really happy for the girls to have picked up the club’s first ever SWPL2 points.

It's a big moment for the club and one that everyone involved can be proud of, especially given it's a young club. The journey over a short space of time has been phenomenal."The message after Glasgow scored was really not to panic and nothing changes.

We were trying to get a goal before and we were still trying to get one. And to their credit, there was no panic. We still went about our business and stuck to it and eventually we got the rewards."He added: "The subs came on and made an impact and helped us get over the line.

It’s such a competitive league and away games especially are never easy so to show the character they did and come back so late on and get the win is brilliant."Livi welcome Boroughmuir Thistle to the Tony Macaroni Arena on Sunday as they look to make it two wins on the bounce.
