St Mirren vs Motherwell

St Mirren and Motherwell served up six goals and precious little defending at the SMISA Stadium on Sunday, 30 August 2026, with the hosts somehow having to hold on after racing into what looked a comfortable lead. St Mirren led 3-2 at the break, having carved Motherwell open time and again in a breathless first half, but the visitors refused to let it go and pulled level after the restart to make it 3-3. That scoreline just about sums up a game that swung one way then the other without ever settling. St Mirren will feel they let two points slip after being in such command by half-time, while Motherwell can take real heart from the fight they showed to claw their way back into it. Neither side will be fully satisfied, but for anyone who made the trip or tuned in, it was the kind of afternoon that keeps you on your feet.
