Motherwell made a winning start to their 2014-15 Scottish Premiership campaign yesterday as a goal from Lee Erwin helped them see off 10-man St Mirren 1-0 at Fir Park.
Motherwell were off the mark in the 64th minute as Erwin registered his first goal for the club by following up a parried Lionel Ainsworth shot, and their opponents’ misery was compounded when Jim Goodwin was sent off nine minutes later.
Inverness also opened with a victory, Billy McKay and Ryan Christie netting early on in their 2-0 win at Hamilton.
