Full-time: Livingston 5 - 0 Airdrie
Soccernet.com

A hat-trick from Gerry Britton helped Division One champions Livingston celebrate their title success with an emphatic 5-0 home win over Airdrie.

Britton headed his side in front after only four minutes from a David Hagen corner to give the hosts a dream start.

Hagen was the provider again a minute later, although Britton knew little about his final touch it deflected off him as he stood with his back to goal.

Livingston went 3-0 up within 20 minutes when Brian McPhee got on the end of a Davide Xausa cross to bullet a diving header into the back of the net.

Canadian Xausa added the fourth with a spectacular 20-yard right-footed free-kick after Scott Bannerman had fouled Alex Burns on the edge of the penalty box.

Burns contributed to the goal that completed the rout when his excellent through-ball found Britton racing clear to slip the ball under goalkeeper Ramiro Gonzalez and into the back of the net.
