Six goals and no shortage of drama at The SMISA Stadium on Sunday, 30 August 2026, as St Mirren and Motherwell shared the points in a 3-3 thriller. The home side raced into a commanding position and led 3-2 at half-time, looking set to take all three points, but Motherwell had other ideas after the break. Whatever St Mirren did well in that first half, they couldn't repeat it in the second, and the visitors made them pay by clawing their way back to level things up. For Motherwell, coming from behind twice in the same game shows there's real fight in this squad, even away from home. St Mirren will feel it's two points dropped rather than one gained, given how well they started and the lead they built before the interval. Games like this tend to even themselves out over a season, but for both sets of fans, this was an afternoon that had everything - goals, momentum swings, and a scoreline that only tells half the story.
