Motherwell's late winner denied the young Tangerines a deserved draw at a sodden Creamery Park, Bathgate yesterday afternoon.
Stevie Campbell's side took an early lead when Craig Bell converted a Glen Hawe cross.
Motherwell rarely threatened in the first half although visiting keeper made a great save just before the break to preserve their advantage.
However, Easton was beaten six minutes after the restart when French midfielder Hermann Mboa Mekongo equalised with a controlled volley.
It was very much nick and tuck in chances, but Motherwell snatched the winner two minutes from time when Keiran McGachie headed in a Stevie Hetherington corner.
