Gary RedknappFootball AnalystРОЗБІР МАТЧУ

Cameron Elliott scored twice as East Kilbride took a stunning 4-3 lead only for St. Mirren to complete a remarkable fightback and win the League Cup thriller, setting up a next fixture against Dunfermline Athletic. The lower-league visitors had the Scottish Premiership side on the ropes for much of the contest.

East Kilbride struck first when Cameron Elliott scored in the 32nd minute, and he doubled the lead just seven minutes later before Craig McGuffie made it 3-0 in the 57th minute. St. Mirren began their revival through Eseosa Sule in the 60th minute, Ryan Carr pulled another back in the 68th, and Killian Phillips levelled in the 77th minute before an unassisted 90th-minute goal completed the astonishing turnaround.

Statistics showed a dead-even contest — 50% possession each and only a single corner separating the sides (4-3 in St. Mirren's favour) — so neither team truly controlled the game on the numbers. Cameron Elliott was the standout with a rating of 8.74 out of ten, scoring twice as a forward for East Kilbride. CheckLive's model clearly favoured East Kilbride but the result did not confirm that prediction, though live signals correctly backed St. Mirren at 1.88 odds as the comeback unfolded. St. Mirren now host Dunfermline Athletic on 26 July.
