Livingston defender Brooklyn Kabongolo conceded a crucial penalty that cost his team a point against Dundee United. Despite leading 2-1, Kabongolo's foul on Zac Sapsford allowed for a penalty conversion, resulting in a 2-2 draw.
Sportscene pundit Steven Naismith says Livingston defender Brooklyn Kabongolo took an unnecessary risk to concede the penalty which cost his team a point at Dundee United on Saturday.
Marvin Bartley's team were on course to win their first league game since August when Lewis Smith's double put them 2-1 up at Tannadice.
But Krisztias Keresztes equalised and Kabongolo then fouled Zac Sapsford, who converted the resulting penalty.
"When you're not in a great position, you can't take a risk and that's what he's done," former Scotland forward Naismith said. "Sapsford gets in, keeps it in play and it was a comfortable finish."
Naismith also praised head coach Jim Goodwin, despite United missing out on a top-half finish this season.
"Where they have been and the job Jim Goodwin has done, it's progression," he said. "They are building and when you take a step back, they are safe and can build for next season."
Although Livingston seem destined to be relegated this term, Naismith thinks Marvin Bartley has likely earned the chance to manage them in the Championship next season,
"Marvin Bartley has put his own stamp on it and he should keep his job and build if they go down," he said."

Naismith criticized Kabongolo for taking an unnecessary risk, stating that in a poor position, such risks should be avoided.
