Hamilton Accies boost as David Moyo and Lewis Smith goals earn closed-doors St Mirren win

Hamilton Accies earned a warm-up win over one of last season's relegation rivals St Mirren at New Douglas Park today.

Accies, who finished last season's curtailed campaign in 11th, faced off against the Buddies who were just two points above in ninth spot.

David Moyo, who is hoping to earn a spot in the Zimbabwe squad next term, opened the scoring after just three minutes.

Lewis Smith doubled the advantage for the hosts inside 30 minutes before Jon Obika netted for Jim Goodwin's side before the break.
