Falkirk earn first Premiership point as Motherwell held at Fir Park | OneFootball

Motherwell and Falkirk drew 0-0 at Fir Park on Sunday, with the visitors collecting their first Premiership point of the season.

In the 12th minute, Ethan Ross forced Alex Paulsen to tip a rising drive away from the top corner. Ibrahim Said then rattled the bar for the hosts (29.) after a corner routine as the game's clearest opening slipped by.

Scott Bain kept the Bairns level with a save from Lukas Fadinger's close-range effort (41.). After the restart, Tawanda Maswanhise shot over from the centre of the box (61.) following Emmanuel Longelo's cross.

Home injuries disrupted the rhythm as Tom Sparrow and Martin Moormann were withdrawn (64., 65.). The Bairns introduced Craig Sibbald after the interval, and further changes followed with Ross MacIver on (68.) and Motherwell replacing Longelo (76.).

There was a brief first half treatment pause for Finn Yeats before play resumed.

Motherwell controlled phases of possession at 58% and tallied 11 attempts, including that bar-hitting effort. The Bairns produced 10 attempts and worked Paulsen once.

Next, Motherwell host HJK in the UEFA Conference League. The Bairns visit Celtic in the Premiership.
