Motherwell manager Jens Berthel Askou revealed that he and his assistant Max Rogers had to have a stern talk with the team at halftime, which spurred a comeback victory over Livingston with a 2-1 win in the Scottish Premiership. The visitors were trailing at the break after a penalty goal by Jeremy Bokila and were fortunate not to concede more. However, the "Steelmen" rallied in the second half, equalizing with a penalty converted by Apostolos Stamatelopoulos. Shortly after his goal was disallowed for offside, Elijah Just scored the winning goal in stoppage time, securing Motherwell's second league win of the season.

Askou commented, "Halftime was a crucial moment. I thought I had raised the decibels enough, but my assistant took it up a notch. I praised him because it gave the players the final piece of understanding we needed. We didn't play at our best, but we showed a lot of character, and that can be a significant energy boost for us during a busy week."

Livingston took the lead in the 26th minute when Bokila was brought down in the penalty area due to a clumsy challenge by Liam Gordon. The "Lions" midfielder, Macaulay Tait, was penalized for a needless handball, allowing Stamatelopoulos to level the score in the 59th minute. Just delighted the traveling fans by netting the winner in the dying moments of the match.

Livingston manager David Martindale remarked, "There are many aspects of the performance I'm pleased with. The disappointment comes from the late goals we concede. I feel there's a lot of work to be done with the group, and it's important to learn from these mistakes."

Analysis: Motherwell's victory demonstrates resilience and the ability to turn games around, which could be crucial in their upcoming fixtures. Meanwhile, Livingston must find a way to stabilize their defense to avoid late-game losses.
