Callum Slattery set the tone in the 14th minute with the pass for Motherwell's opener, and the visitors beat St Mirren 5-0. The midfielder finished with three assists to decide the contest.

Slattery's early supply split the defence for Elijah Just to finish (14.). From there he dictated territory with crisp passing and constant availability between the lines.

After the restart he threaded Ibrahim Said through to add a third (49.). He then delivered the corner for Emmanuel Longelo's strike, which was confirmed after a VAR review (58.).

The England midfielder's numbers underlined the control: 88 total passes with 81 accurate, 31 successful final third passes, four key passes and three tackles from 107 touches. He also registered three assists, the standout return on the night.

Because Motherwell consistently found him between St Mirren's midfield and back line, Slattery kept the hosts turning and ensured the visitors controlled the key phases.

He now sits second in the Scottish Premiership assists chart with seven. Motherwell host Dundee United next, while St Mirren visit Livingston.
