St Mirren vs Motherwell

St Mirren and Motherwell served up six goals and barely a moment to breathe at the SMISA Stadium on Sunday, 30 August 2026, with the home side edging a helter-skelter first half 3-2 before Motherwell hauled things level after the break to make it 3-3. Whatever defensive plans either side had walking out the tunnel didn't last long, and the goals kept coming at both ends before the interval whistle gave everyone a chance to catch up. Motherwell will feel it's the better of two points given they were behind for so much of it, digging in after the break to force a share of the spoils. St Mirren, meanwhile, will look back at that three-goal cushion and wonder how it slipped through their fingers. Neither side will be fully happy, but for anyone who turned up hoping for goals, this one delivered in full.

St Mirren and Motherwell drew 3-3 at The SMISA Stadium, in a game that could easily have finished either way.
