Barry Robson pleased with Aberdeen's response to cup final defeat
Bojan Miovski double seals victory over battling Livingston
Aberdeen boss Barry Robson was in bullish mood after his side came from behind to overcome Livingston 2-1 in the cinch Premiership.
The Dons had to do it the hard way after falling behind to Kurtis Guthrie's close-range finish - a strike that ended a seven-game goalless streak for the rock-bottom visitors.
Bojan Miovski headed in an equaliser before the interval and, after seeing another strike chalked off for offside, the North Macedonia striker turned home a low cross from Luis 'Duk' Lopes to earn his side a second successive league win.
Aberdeen's response after Sunday's League Cup final defeat to Rangers impressed their manager, who has seen his side win three of their last four matches in all competitions having previously endured a six-game winless run.
Robson said: "It's difficult to come out after a game of the magnitude of the Viaplay Cup final and I was a wee bit concerned, but it shows that the boys are together.
Two great goals from Miovski
"I think we started probably a bit slowly, and there wasn't much in the first half. We showed resilience after going behind, and grew into the game.
"Bojan scored two great goals and I think he could have scored one or two more in the end.
"We always knew November and December would be tough months. We need to get our heads down and pick up the points to get us up the table.
"We look at every game as being really difficult. We've come through a lot of tough games and it's not easy at any Scottish Premier League ground."
Livingston manager David Martindale felt Aberdeen's quality in attack was the difference between the two sides.
"The top end of the park is the difference tonight," he said.
"We've got to do better at both of his goals, but I don't think there was anything in the game.
"We felt pretty comfortable and the game plan was working. Aberdeen changed their shape which hurt us, but we've got to do better with those goals.
"They're cracking finishes, and for me he's one of the best strikers in the league.
"Kurtis Guthrie was very, very good tonight, but the ones in and around him need to take a bit more responsibility.
"Unfortunately I can't afford players like Miovski."
