Falkirk
Falkirk secured a dramatic 3-2 victory at Motherwell despite being dominated for large periods, showcasing clinical finishing from limited opportunities. Stewart's early opener set the tone before Watt's equaliser sparked a frantic first half that saw Ben Broggio restore Falkirk's lead on the stroke of halftime. Calvin Miller's penalty in the 62nd minute appeared to seal the points for the visitors, but Tawanda Maswanhise's 90th-minute consolation goal ensured a nervy finish. Despite controlling 62% possession and creating 58 dangerous attacks to Falkirk's 29, Motherwell's profligacy in front of goal proved costly as they missed two big chances while Falkirk converted all three of theirs.
