Greg Kiltie scored twice to lift Kilmarnock off the bottom of the Scottish Premiership with a 3-2 victory over Motherwell. Kiltie struck first and last as Neil Mc Cann's side inflicted a fifth consecutive defeat on the Steelmen, who join Killie in the bottom three, one point off bottom-placed Hibernian.

Motherwell had a dominant spell after recovering from Kiltie's second-minute opener and goals from Alex Lowry and Seb Palmer-Houlden turned the game on its head. But Tyreece John-Jules soon equalised and Motherwell were cut open before Kiltie knocked home a 69th-minute winner.

Given their run, Motherwell fans would have feared the worst when their team gifted Kilmarnock a goal with little over 60 seconds on the clock. Goalkeeper Alex Paulsen misplaced a short pass into central midfield and Kiltie ultimately converted after some desperate defending.

The visitors' lead only lasted two minutes. Two Motherwell defenders were barged off the ball as Brandon headed the ball back into the box after a half-cleared corner and John-Jules produced an emphatic finish. Brandon delivered another assist when his crossfield pass played in Kiltie, who again slotted into the far corner.
