It has been a long time since I’ve seen St Mirren dominate a game as much as they did in this match.<\/p>\n
St Mirren had several attempts before they took the lead in the 36th minute when a shot from Mandron hit the St Johnstone post only to rebound off the St Johnstone keeper Dimitar Mitov\u2019s back and finish in the net.<\/p>\n
St Mirren continued to dominate and had other chances before the end of the 1st half, however it finished 1 – 0 to St Mirren at half time.<\/p>\n
The second half started very much like the first half and it was the man Mandron again who scored St Mirren’s 2nd goal in the 64 minute.<\/p>\n
As the game continued\u00a0 Kwon Hyeok-kyu thought he had scored his first goal for St Mirren but VAR stepped in again and adjudged him to have fouled a St Johnstone player before he had scored.<\/p>\n
It was late in the game when St Johnstone finally\u00a0troubled Zach Hemming forcing him into a fine save.<\/p>\n
The game finished 2 -0 to the Paisley Saints.<\/p>\n
There were worrying scenes at the end of the game when St Johnstone’s Adama Sidibeh collapsed. St Johnstone released a statement later that evening confirming Sidibeh was taken to the Royal Alexander Hospital in Paisley and was\u00a0in a stable condition.<\/p>\n
A St Johnstone spokesperson said: “The club can confirm that Adama Sidibeh is in a stable condition.<\/p>\n
“The striker has been taken to a local hospital in Paisley for further medical checks and the club will update on his condition in due course.<\/p>\n
“St Johnstone Football Club would like to thank the staff of St Mirren for their help and support at the end of today’s Scottish Premiership fixture.”<\/p>\n
