STORY OF THE MATCH | MOTHERWELL (H)
31st October 2024
Man-of-the-match David Hannah is the main injury concern after Sunday night's Scottish Cup win against Rangers. The scorer of the goal which knocked the Ibrox giants out of the competition had to leave the field of play for several minutes to receive treatment to a head wound.
The Manager's immediate task is to ensure that his players remain focused on the vital battle for league points for the moment. He explained, "I'm happy to let the players relax for a day and enjoy the feeling that goes with beating an Old Firm side in the Cup. But there's no way I will allow any complacency to slip in at Tannadice. Just because our recent form has been good doesn't mean results will start to happen automatically. We are still involved in a battle at the bottom of the SPL and the players must never forget that. Continued hard work and commitment is required."
