BBC Sport - Football - Livingston 4-0 Alloa Athletic (original) (raw)

Scottish Football League

Four second-half goals - including two from Raffaele De Vita - ensured an emphatic win for table-topping Livingston over Alloa Athletic.

Iain Russell opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 55th minute following Michael Dunlop's hand ball.

Russell turned provider, crossing from the right for striker De Vita to score from 12 yards.

De Vita scored from close range 13 minutes from time before Robbie Winters set up Bobby Barr for the fourth.

It means Livingston, responding to their midweek defeat by second-top Brechin, are now 11 points clear in Division Two after City's loss to Ayr.
