- Saints concede a penalty for the second week in a row after Declan Gallagher is adjudged to have handballed on the 22nd minute when a shot strikes his supporting arm whilst attempting to stand up, a supposed exclusion in the new handball rule.
- To rub salt into the wound, Gallagher is sent off and the penalty converted by Mivoksi to open the scoring in a match Saints had looked the more dangerous up until that point.
- Jim Goodwin’s side have the match sewn up by half time by scoring twice more as Saints delayed a reorganisation and substitutions until the break.
- Jonah Ayunga scores again, this time from the penalty spot, as designated taker Mark O’Hara misses the match due to concussion from the Motherwell game.
- The side are bottom of the early season table.
