St Mirren vs Motherwell

Six goals and not a dull moment at The SMISA Stadium on Sunday, as St Mirren and Motherwell shared the points in a 3-3 draw that had everything except a winner. The home side raced into the game with real intent, building a three-goal cushion before the visitors clawed their way back into it, and by the break it was already 3-2. That first-half alone gave the crowd more drama than some teams manage in a full ninety minutes. Motherwell came out for the second half needing a response, and they got their goal, drawing level to make it 3-3 and forcing a share of the spoils. Neither defence covered itself in glory, but neither side deserved to lose either, given the way both kept pushing. For St Mirren, there will be frustration at surrendering a lead built so well. For Motherwell, it's a point earned the hard way, dragged back from behind against a team full of running.

St Mirren and Motherwell drew 3-3 at The SMISA Stadium, in a game that could easily have finished either way. It was an even contest for large parts of the afternoon, with neither team able to take control of the game for long. Both sides had spells on top without ever pulling clear, and the shot count on the day backs up just how tight things were. A draw is rarely the result either team sets out to get, but on this occasion it was a fair reflection of ninety minutes where chances were shared roughly evenly. Below is a closer look at exactly how the numbers from the match broke down.
