Can't play Scale up anim with animator,Can't play an animation (with animator) on a 2D Image

Hi!
I’m trying to animate a 2D “You lose” Image (UI=>Image).
I’ve created the animation with the Animation window, and it works if I tick ‘loop’.
However I want it not to be playing and then play when I lose a game.
I can’t seem to make “anim.Play(“ScaleUpAnim”);” work in the following script. While a anim.stop() works fine.

nb : This code has my play in the update fonction with a delay of 2s, for testing purposes.

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class EndGameAnim : MonoBehaviour {

	public bool isWin;
	public static Animator anim;

	private float tempDelay = 2;
	private float beginTime = 0;
	public void Start () {
		print("Start anim");
		anim = GetComponent<Animator>();
		print("Anim = " + anim);
	}

	public void Update () {
		if (Time.time >= tempDelay) {
			print("post sleep");
			anim.Play("ScaleUpAnim");
		}
	}

	public static void scaleUp () {
//		print("Anim 2 = " + anim);
//		anim.Play("ScaleUpAnim");
	}
}

I’ve tried to put “Lose” as the string in play, but it’s not working either.

Any ideas ?!

Ok I found a solution.
I’m unticking the script on both my objects. Then I use enable when I need one :

endAnim = GameObject.Find("Win").GetComponent<EndGameAnim>();
endAnim.enabled = true;

After that I call the scaleUp function where I enable the animator on the object, and voila :

public void scaleUp (bool _isWin) {
	anim = GetComponent<Animator>();
	print("Anim 2 = " + anim.name);
	if ((_isWin && anim.name == "Win") || (!_isWin && anim.name == "Lose"))
		anim.enabled = true;
}
