Aberdeen maintained their 100 per cent start to the new Premiership season with a hard-fought 2-1 win away at Ross County.
Craig Curran opened the scoring with a second-minute header to hand the home side an early lead at Victoria Park before Mark Reynolds equalised midway through the first half with a well-timed volley into the roof of the net.
Derek McInnes' side then completed the comeback after the break when defender Shay Logan headed home from close range.
St Johnstone took advantage of Motherwell's capitulation at McDiarmid Park, where the visitors had three players sent off in a 4-1 defeat.
Goalkeeper Trevor Carson, skipper Carl McHugh and Charles Dunne were dismissed in the second half.
Saints secured an early advantage from Steven MacLean, and a double from on-loan Rangers forward Michael O'Halloran could have been a hat-trick, but he missed a late penalty before Murray Davidson netted St Johnstone's fourth. Andy Rose netted for Motherwell.
Hamilton scooped their first three points of the season, thumping Dundee 3-0 with goals from Darian MacKinnon, Steven Boyd and Dougie Imrie.
Imrie converted an 85th-minute penalty to complete the scoring, seven minutes after Scott Allan missed from the spot at the other end.
Hearts also got off the mark, following up last week's defeat at Celtic with a 1-0 win at Kilmarnock that was secured by a sixth-minute goal from Isma Goncalves.
The match-winner, whose 20-yard strike was an impressive finish, was sent off midway through the second half after a tussle with Kilmarnock centre-back Kirk Broadfoot, who was also red-carded.
