"Hearts maintained their six-point lead at the Scottish Premiership summit, despite playing 75 minutes of their 2-0 win over St. Mirren with 10 men. Second-half goals from Lawrence Shankland and Tomas Magnusson sealed the victory for Derek McInnes' side, who had Beni Baningime sent off early on at Tynecastle. Baningime saw red after just 15 minutes, with his initial yellow card for a high challenge on Roland Idowu upgraded by referee Kevin Clancy following a VAR review."
"St. Mirren twice had the ball in the net as they looked to capitalise on their numerical advantage during the first half, but Idowu's effort and Harry Milne's own-goal were both ruled out for offside. However, it was Hearts who broke through on the hour mark as Blair Spittal and Alexandros Kyziridis combined before finding Shankland, who scored his 11th league goal of the season."
