Motherwell went into Saturday’s game with league leaders Hearts in improved form, but lost out by one goal in a tight affair at Fir Park.
This is the Story of the Match from our first encounter with Craig Levein’s side this season.
Motherwell battled in vain as they narrowly lost out 1-0 to Ladbrokes Premiership leaders Hearts.
Steven Naismith netted the only goal as Trevor Carson suffered a potentially serious injury in the build-up.
Steven Naismith’s first half goal decided a tight encounter at Fir Park as Motherwell suffered a 1-0 defeat against Hearts.
Stephen Robinson named an unchanged side from the 3-1 victory over Dundee two weeks ago, as the Steelmen looked to follow up on a first league win.
Despite a hugely positive opening half, where Curtis Main went close with a volley and Richard Tait was denied from close range, Hearts took the lead against the run of play.
Uche Impeazu latched on to a Carl McHugh back pass, colliding with Trevor Carson, before Naismith picked up the loose ball and passed the ball home.
It left the Fir Park side a goal down, but also forced an early change as Carson was stretchered off with a painful injury to his ankle.
The second half was a largely frustrating one for Robinson’s men, with all substitutions used after just 60-minutes, Hearts sat in and looked to hold on to their lead.
And despite McHugh’s best efforts to nod home a Gaël Bigirimana cross, the visitors held on to maintain their perfect start to the Premiership campaign.
Peter Hartley, Mark Gillespie and Curtis Main reflect on the 1-0 defeat against Hearts.
Gillespie, who was sent on to replace the injured Trevor Carson, said: “I think we can take a lot of positives. We were in the game right until the end but maybe didn’t have that quality in the final third.”
Stephen Robinson says his team matched Hearts all the way in their Ladbrokes Premiership clash, with the game decided by one pivotal moment.
The Motherwell boss urged fans to remember where the Gorgie club find themselves in the league, with them top with a 100% record from five matches.

Back from international duty and raring to go, Scotland Under 21 international Chris Cadden is ready for the challenges Hearts will present on Saturday.
Facing the league leaders will be no easy task, but the player says another honest performance from the Steelmen will put them in with a chance of a home win.
The international break is over. Motherwell welcome Hearts in the first game back at Fir Park in the Ladbrokes Premiership.
Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the match.
