Tawanda Maswanhise wasted no time reigniting his club form after AFCON, marking his return with a goal and an assist as Motherwell cruised to a 2–0 St Mirren victory at Fir Park.
Fresh from international duty with Zimbabwe, the lively forward picked up exactly where he left off in the Scottish Premiership, opening the scoring in the 35th minute with a composed finish to claim his ninth league goal of the campaign. Maswanhise’s all-round impact was evident again after the break, when he turned provider, laying on a neat assist for Elliot Watt’s emphatic strike that sealed the points.
Motherwell controlled large spells of the contest and never looked in danger once ahead, backing up their recent strong form with another assured performance. The result keeps the Steelmen firmly in the hunt near the top end of the table, while St Mirren remain rooted in the lower reaches.
For Maswanhise, the match underlined his momentum post-AFCON: sharp, confident, and decisive. With nine goals and two assists already this season, his return to domestic action will only fuel further talk around his growing influence—and rising value—at Fir Park.
