Meanwhile, over at St Mirren, Jonah Ayunga was busy making headlines of his own. In a thrilling home match against Hibernian, St Mirren dominated the pitch with a decisive 3-0 victory. Ayunga, known for his speed and agility, assisted his teammates and made crucial plays that set the tone for this fantastic win. The Saints were on fire, with Roland Idowu opening the scoring early in the game.
