Falkirk secured a top-six finish in the Scottish Premiership with a 3-2 away win at Motherwell, ending a 31-year drought for the Bairns. Barney Stewart opened the scoring with a fine header on three minutes, but Elliot Watt's volley equalized before the break. Ben Broggio restored the lead for Falkirk moments later, only for Calvin Miller to provide crucial breathing space with a penalty just after the hour.

Tawanda Maswanhise netted with virtually the last kick to seal the victory. Miller was pivotal, scoring his fifth consecutive goal and providing the assist for Stewart's opener. Falkirk's win ensures they finish in the top half of the table for the first time in three decades.
