In Motherwell's fourth and final match of the Premier Sports Cup group-stage, they sealed their place in the Round of 16 with an assured victory over Morton.  The hosts battled through frustrations in the final third, to coast to a commanding three-goal cushion in the second-half, with Apostolos Stamatelopoulos breaking the deadlock with his first-goal of the season, before Tawanda Maswanhise netted a magnificent double to secure all three-points. Never in danger of conceding, Motherwell can take confidence from Tuesday evening's encounter, as they face Hertha Berlin in a final pre-season test before the opening game of the season against Rangers.

In Motherwell's third match of the Premier Sports Cup group-stage, they were back on the road, this time to Stenhousemuir. As the torrential rain fell, over 1000 Motherwell fans gathered in stands as Motherwell started the game on the front foot. With a number of big opportunities not taken, it was just before half-time when the Steelmen got their deserved lead through Stephen O'Donnell. The second-half followed a similar narrative. Creating plenty opportunities, that killer instinct to put the game beyond Stenhousemuir's reach was lacking. Never in danger of conceding, the game fizzled out and the win meant Motherwell are now one win away from qualifying top of the group.

Fresh off the back of scoring against Stenhousemuir on Saturday, vice-captain Stephen O'Donnell provides insight into what it is like playing under Jens Berthel Askou and adopting his style during games.

Assistant Manager Max Rogers details how he has enjoyed working under manager Jens Berthel Askou and explains that a big draw to the club was that their views on how football should be played aligned.  Rogers describes the differences he has seen in Scottish football since returning north of the border.
