William Hill Championship leaders Falkirk eased to a 3-1 win over Hamilton at New Douglas Park on Friday night.

There were only five minutes gone when Brad Spencer turned in Aidan Nesbitt’s cross to open the scoring, and Calvin Miller doubled their advantage in the 29th minute, cutting inside from the right before firing home.

Moments later Dylan Tait was brought down in the box and Spencer fired in the penalty to put the visitors in complete control.

Euan Henderson scored two minutes into the second half for Hamilton but Falkirk saw the game out for their seventh win in 10 league games.
