Falkirk stun Celtic as Motherwell and Kilmarnock earn points in Scottish Premiership

Falkirk produced one of the biggest results of the Scottish Premiership weekend by beating Celtic 2-0 at the Falkirk Stadium on Sunday. The victory gave Falkirk a valuable three points against the league leaders and added another twist to the season's title race.

Celtic remain top of the table despite the defeat, sitting on 28 points from 12 matches. Rangers are second with 24 points from 11 games, while Hearts occupy third place with 20 points. Falkirk's win moved them up to fourth, taking their tally to 18 points.

Saturday's action saw Motherwell claim a narrow 1-0 home victory over St Mirren at Fir Park. The result earned Motherwell three important points, while St Mirren were left without a reward from their trip.

The other completed match on Saturday ended in a 2-2 draw between Kilmarnock and St Johnstone. Both sides took a point after an evenly matched contest at Rugby Park.

The scheduled meeting between Dundee United and Hearts was postponed, leaving the weekend programme with three completed fixtures. Attention now turns to the next round, with the Scottish Premiership table continuing to take shape.
