Good evening, after the referendum we are back in the land of football, | :00:41. | :00:47. | |
were the only percentage that really matters is 110%, every decision is | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
contentious and acrimony on all sides is par for the course. A | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
weekend of footballing intrigue looks like this. | :00:57. | :01:04. | |
It is Watkins! Keeping it tight at the back throughout all of it are | :01:05. | :01:16. | |
these two. The header and the goal,. Miller, | :01:17. | :01:36. | |
the captain. There is the cup. Willie Miller has graced a few | :01:37. | :01:41. | |
studios and he's time and Darren making his debut with us this | :01:42. | :01:45. | |
evening. We start with the Dundee derby, both sides made promising | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
start to the Premiership season, would it be a case of yes city or no | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
sure in terms of the entertainment. Paul Hartley sticks with the same | :01:54. | :02:11. | |
starting XI as last week. Dundee United make one change to the team. | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
Ryan Dow comes in. Then the's last victory in a derby | :02:16. | :02:29. | |
match came ten years ago. Mackay Stephen. Penalty. Conrad was the | :02:30. | :02:38. | |
fender and he gets a yellow card from the referee. At full pace. The | :02:39. | :02:51. | |
touch of the right arm of Conrad. Mario Bilate, and Dundee United are | :02:52. | :03:01. | |
in front in the Derby. From the penalty spot. Claiming his second | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
goal of the season. Confident finish. He has done well, not to | :03:07. | :03:27. | |
make -- nutmeg on Payton. Roberts! Could only hit the side netting. | :03:28. | :03:42. | |
Creative play by the home side. McAllister under pressure again from | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
Rankin. Ryan Dow has got the yard of space. United are 2-0 in front. Nine | :03:47. | :03:57. | |
minutes into the second half and Ryan Dow. Clever footwork from the | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
United player after Dundee lost possession again in the middle of | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
the park and an excellent finish. Ryan Dow just teasing Conrad. | :04:09. | :04:19. | |
Goes to close him down. Free kick. In favour of the Dundee United | :04:20. | :04:34. | |
player. Offers his apologies. Preparing to swing this free kick | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
in. There is the header from Callum Morris! His first goal for the | :04:41. | :04:47. | |
Tannadice club. It puts them 3-0 in front. Terrific run, good | :04:48. | :04:56. | |
connection. And the goalkeeper was left helpless. The manager pleased | :04:57. | :05:03. | |
with the delivery swung in by Paul Paton. | :05:04. | :05:10. | |
Chance for Gary Harkins. The United player put his body on the line, it | :05:11. | :05:20. | |
was Keith Watson to advanced quickly to make the block. Paul Paton | :05:21. | :05:27. | |
preparing to swing in this free kick. There is Watson. And that is | :05:28. | :05:35. | |
the fourth. Dundee United in dreamland this afternoon against | :05:36. | :05:43. | |
their city rivals. Paul Paton again with a fine cross in, the goalkeeper | :05:44. | :05:49. | |
could not keep it out. Knocked it back into his own net but Watson is | :05:50. | :05:58. | |
the man that will claim it. Miserable first derby for Paul | :05:59. | :06:04. | |
Hartley. If that is another yellow card, it is. Konrad Is sent off. | :06:05. | :06:17. | |
Second yellow means red. Dundee are down to ten men. Smith just got | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
their ahead of Konrad. MacGowan again. Stewart. In the last | :06:23. | :06:48. | |
minute of the match. He has drilled that one into the corner of the net, | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
Greig Stewart. Nothing more than a consolation for Dundee. It will be | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
united sitting top of the Premiership tonight. I thought we | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
were excellent, organised, disciplined. The back four were | :07:03. | :07:11. | |
outstanding, Paul Paton was immense and the movement was good. We did | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
not do enough in the final third, did not work the goalkeeper, gave | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
the ball away at times in certain areas of the park and did not hurt | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
them. Superb victory for Dundee United. | :07:24. | :07:34. | |
Controversial penalty decision, but the Dundee United midfielders, | :07:35. | :07:44. | |
forcing them into mistakes. But it was an excellent performance from | :07:45. | :07:46. | |
Dundee United. The back four were superb. Paul Paton winning the ball | :07:47. | :08:02. | |
for Mackay Stephen. That is superb play. He goes at Konrad, there is a | :08:03. | :08:10. | |
coming together and the referee has to make a decision and it was a | :08:11. | :08:16. | |
penalty. I think it was a difficult one for the referee, but there was | :08:17. | :08:22. | |
contact. Ryan Dow, it was a good call, but United forced the mistake. | :08:23. | :08:29. | |
Put pressure on the ball, the quality of the finish from Ryan Dow, | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
he sets it up and slots it into the back of the net. Darren, from a | :08:35. | :08:42. | |
defensive point of view from Dundee, how disappointed will Paul Hartley | :08:43. | :08:49. | |
be with his defence? Very disappointed, Dundee have had a | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
decent defensive record this season so far, but you would not know it on | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
that showing. The first one, right in the middle. Middle of the six | :08:59. | :09:05. | |
yard box. It is a good delivery, but you need your defenders to be | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
attacking it, it is too easy and this second one, a centre forward | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
marking. Just switched off, watching the man running and the game was | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
dead and buried at that stage. Both of the sides have to do it again in | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
midweek at Tannadice. Is it simply a case that Dundee United have better | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
players? Absolutely. They have added to their squad, lost players during | :09:32. | :09:37. | |
the close season. Defensively they are looking much better than last | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
season. I thought there was always the tendency to have weakness in the | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
defensive setup but I was well impressed with them defensively | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
overall as a team and they have players that can go forward and take | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
opportunities. Special mention for ranking and Paul Paton. They were | :09:57. | :10:05. | |
superb, the pressurised the ball and the delivery from Paul Paton from | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
the free kick was superb. Both of them were outstanding. Celtic Park | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
has not been a happy place for Motherwell the recent years, the | :10:16. | :10:22. | |
last nine years, all games ending in Celtic victory. Commentary comes | :10:23. | :10:29. | |
from Rob Maclean. Six changes to the Celtic team which kicked off the | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
Europa League in Austria on Thursday night. Scott Brown and Kris Commons | :10:34. | :10:37. | |
left out, there is a debut for John Guidetti. Even much changed Celtic | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
is a big challenge for Motherwell who have lost four of their first | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
six games. Craig Reid has an important role in front of the back | :10:48. | :10:49. | |
four. John Sutton, the not for Iain | :10:50. | :11:00. | |
Vigurs. Lucky that came to him on his right foot rather than his left. | :11:01. | :11:07. | |
Possession last by Anthony Stokes. Driving forward. Gets a good ball in | :11:08. | :11:22. | |
for John Sutton. That stands Celtic heart in the 19th minute. -- stuns | :11:23. | :11:47. | |
Celtic Park. Ye invite goes with the short and Motherwell reckon he used | :11:48. | :11:56. | |
his arm but the referee says no. Fraser care. Gets through EZ DA -- | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
easy John Sutton has missed an absolute | :12:02. | :12:09. | |
sitter. Look of disbelief on his face. And you can understand why. He | :12:10. | :12:14. | |
scored once, should have scored twice. Anthony Stokes. Callum | :12:15. | :12:26. | |
MacGregor. Anthony Stokes again. Virgil van Dijk! Brilliant save. He | :12:27. | :12:35. | |
got his fingertips to Van Dijk's header and turned this onto the | :12:36. | :12:41. | |
post, what they stop. -- what a stop. Craig Reid got that away and | :12:42. | :12:48. | |
it was a sore one. Back with Kris Commons! He struck it well. But | :12:49. | :12:56. | |
right down the throat of the Motherwell keeper. Celtic searching | :12:57. | :13:06. | |
for an equaliser. And it is Callum MacGregor with a great effort. | :13:07. | :13:13. | |
Matched by the save. Having some match. | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
Nir Biton. Celtic much better in the second half with 2/2-time changes, | :13:20. | :13:29. | |
here is one of them, Scott Brown, bearing down on goal, penalty | :13:30. | :13:37. | |
given. Motherwell are furious. -- 2/2-time changes. That touch enough | :13:38. | :13:47. | |
to send Scott Brown down. The decision already taken. It is Kris | :13:48. | :13:55. | |
Commons! Midway through the second half to make it 1-1. There will be | :13:56. | :14:03. | |
lots of debate about the awarding of the penalty, but no difference of | :14:04. | :14:08. | |
opinion about how it was taken, clinical. | :14:09. | :14:14. | |
Having levelled things up, Celtic will want all three points. | :14:15. | :14:26. | |
MacGregor. Scott Brown. MacGregor's shot deflected. It is another really | :14:27. | :14:29. | |
good save from the goalkeeper. Kris Commons. Lovely flick from | :14:30. | :14:47. | |
Scott Brown. And MacGregor! Just the wrong side of the post. | :14:48. | :14:56. | |
Scott Brown. Great ball in and the header. Just saved and that might be | :14:57. | :15:19. | |
Celtic's last chance. We deserved to win the game but we made ourselves | :15:20. | :15:25. | |
in a bad situation with a very bad first half. We struggled of the | :15:26. | :15:31. | |
second half to open them and we did it much better and we get a goal | :15:32. | :15:39. | |
that we deserved. In the end, 1-1 is not good enough. | :15:40. | :15:48. | |
I thought the lads effort, desire and determination was fantastic. It | :15:49. | :16:00. | |
is good to get a point. We will get to the 2 penalty incidents shortly. | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
One was given and 1 was not. You were there today. He opted to leave | :16:06. | :16:12. | |
some of his main stars on the bench in the first half. You see a marked | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
difference in the Celtic performance. That is something they | :16:19. | :16:28. | |
will have to get used to. For me, Scott Brown is the heartbeat of the | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
team. It was a different Celtic in the second half. He is the driving | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
force. That is why he is the captain. Celtic missed someone | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
driving at the back four. Did the other players need to step | :16:44. | :16:58. | |
up? There was nobody really going at the back four. White and I have seen | :16:59. | :17:11. | |
a lot of Motherwell fans raging at the penalty incident. -- I have | :17:12. | :17:20. | |
seen. His hand should not have been where they were. You need to give | :17:21. | :17:26. | |
Scott Brown credit. People talk about honesty and he is as good as | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
they come. I understand why they think it is harsh. If it is given | :17:31. | :17:41. | |
against you, you feel hard done by. Should there have been a penalty? | :17:42. | :17:48. | |
There is contact. There is a fellow outside the box. I think it is a | :17:49. | :17:55. | |
free kick. He is off balance. He goes into the box and it is little | :17:56. | :18:00. | |
touch again. In modern football, wherever there is contact in the | :18:01. | :18:08. | |
box... It is solved. In America I can understand why he gave it but I | :18:09. | :18:11. | |
can understand why the Motherwell fans are not very happy. He was | :18:12. | :18:19. | |
fouled outside the box. His momentum has taken him there. All in all, | :18:20. | :18:27. | |
with the first challenge, he is trying to stay on his feet and then | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
he went down. Aberdeen are still looking to find their groove this | :18:34. | :18:40. | |
season while the tawdry are looking to get their first point. -- | :18:41. | :18:49. | |
Pittordrie. Jim McIntyre will not know his best | :18:50. | :18:56. | |
starting 11 yet. It has been lost, win, loss, when, | :18:57. | :19:16. | |
loss for Aberdeen so far in the league. He is offside. Elation turns | :19:17. | :19:26. | |
to disappointment in a split 2nd. McGinn was onside. Goodwillie was | :19:27. | :19:38. | |
offside. Good, strong play by Goodwillie. | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
That shot blocked by Brown. County already swimming against the | :19:45. | :19:53. | |
Aberdeen tide. A great touch by Goodwillie. There | :19:54. | :20:04. | |
is a flamboyant see about Aberdeen this afternoon. Red shirts swarming | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
around the county box. A good effort from Ryan Jack. He | :20:11. | :20:24. | |
does not score many. He got behind that with a strong hand. | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
He squeezed that through. He got it all wrong. That sums up County 's | :20:31. | :20:46. | |
season so far. He scored the winner against Aberdeen last season and is | :20:47. | :20:49. | |
wondering why his team are not in front. | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
Aberdeen are in front now! Deservedly so. Rooney flashing their | :20:55. | :21:10. | |
header past Brown for his seventh of the season. Much to ponder for Jim | :21:11. | :21:20. | |
McIntyre. Goodwillie! It is two. And that is very clever from the gain | :21:21. | :21:26. | |
then Goodwillie. It is two in two. The dons should be more than 2-0 up. | :21:27. | :21:44. | |
It might be more at the end of this move. A good save. A few of his | :21:45. | :21:52. | |
team-mates asking where the pass was. Once he saw the goal, only 1 | :21:53. | :21:55. | |
decision to make for him. He put himself under a bit of | :21:56. | :22:06. | |
pressure, Jack. Just as he was about to release the past... Something to | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
say to his Aberdeen team-mate. They almost came to blows. Craig Thomson | :22:13. | :22:22. | |
is going to make a booking. He will but Ryan Jack as well. Not often you | :22:23. | :22:29. | |
see that. The 1st-time ball to Flood. Aberdeen have options in the | :22:30. | :22:30. | |
middle. It is three. 3-0 and that should be three points. | :22:31. | :22:48. | |
This has taken a big deflection. He has had a good game. | :22:49. | :22:56. | |
An awkward bounce. What a save from Brown! This is outstanding | :22:57. | :23:07. | |
goalkeeping. The skipper is unable to inspire his | :23:08. | :23:17. | |
team. Lang Field says. This should surely have been County | :23:18. | :23:37. | |
clawing one back. The last team to open their league season with 7 | :23:38. | :23:46. | |
straight league defeats was Aberdeen in 1999/2000. Goodwillie in to make | :23:47. | :23:52. | |
it four. How has he missed that? County are clear. A great ball. | :23:53. | :24:00. | |
Goodwillie was wheeling away to celebrate before he hit it. Maybe | :24:01. | :24:06. | |
you want to play with the 2 up. Something that was reviewed pleasing | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
today. Enough good play from both boys to suggest it is something we | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
will look at it again. Not a lot of positives to take from today. Never | :24:17. | :24:20. | |
did our jobs properly. The game was done from there. | :24:21. | :24:28. | |
A really attacking formation. Goodwillie upfront and it certainly | :24:29. | :24:38. | |
had some effect. He does not play that formation too often. I thought | :24:39. | :24:43. | |
both players were outstanding. Goodwillie on this occasion setting | :24:44. | :24:50. | |
up Rooney. He should have put the ball into the back of the net but he | :24:51. | :24:53. | |
makes no mistake this time. The superb header. A training field | :24:54. | :25:04. | |
freekick definitely. Pollack moved out of the space and allows | :25:05. | :25:09. | |
Goodwillie to move forward. Not an easy header but he makes a right job | :25:10. | :25:13. | |
of it. I'd have a great chance here to round things off in some style. | :25:14. | :25:21. | |
-- a great chance. They did do everything right apart from | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
celebrate too early. It came off the post. I am sure they would be | :25:26. | :25:35. | |
embarrassed about that. Pollack, the player who impresses everyone. He | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
seems to become ever more important for the Dons. He is very direct. He | :25:41. | :25:50. | |
has an end product. There are not many full-backs or teams of | :25:51. | :25:54. | |
full-backs who will be looking forward coming up against him. There | :25:55. | :26:00. | |
is a lot of pace in the Aberdeen team. That is it for them. They are | :26:01. | :26:07. | |
taking advantage. Ross County is at a low ebb. Absolutely. A lot of work | :26:08. | :26:11. | |
to be done. Aberdeen were totally dominant. They were right at the top | :26:12. | :26:19. | |
of their game, full of pace. I have watched Peter Grow up through the | :26:20. | :26:26. | |
development stages at Aberdeen. -- grow up. It could have been more | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
than three. I'd never having scored their 1st Premiership goal last | :26:31. | :26:36. | |
weekend, could St Mirren managed their first points on Friday night? | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
-- having scored. The Saint Mirren manager brings in | :26:41. | :26:50. | |
two wingers. A challenge into the back but no | :26:51. | :27:05. | |
free kick. Unmarked in the box and that is 1 -0 | :27:06. | :27:23. | |
midway through the 1st half. It was straight forward. The header was | :27:24. | :27:32. | |
down and away for 1-0. That pass was intercepted. | :27:33. | :27:45. | |
Callum Ball! An immediate impact from the substitute. It is only his | :27:46. | :27:58. | |
second -- be 2nd of the Premiership season for the Paisley team. It is | :27:59. | :28:00. | |
1-1. He continues the run and gets in | :28:01. | :28:15. | |
from behind. Having squared the game, Callan Ball was trying to win | :28:16. | :28:23. | |
it. A good save. -- Ball. Archibald with the glance of his watch inside | :28:24. | :28:29. | |
stoppage time, well inside stoppage time. The header away. Back it | :28:30. | :28:42. | |
comes. Up goes Ballotoni. The defender not very happy about that | :28:43. | :28:51. | |
decision. Four minutes added. Got away by capital F. That is handball. | :28:52. | :28:53. | |
That is a penalty. Osman is the player with his arm | :28:54. | :29:00. | |
raised. St Mirren get their first | :29:01. | :29:18. | |
Premiership win of the season. So badly needed. A natural reaction of | :29:19. | :29:27. | |
players to put their hands up. There is not a lot you can do. I did not | :29:28. | :29:35. | |
think it was a foul. I am pleased for the fans. They were very vocal | :29:36. | :29:39. | |
tonight. They sensed there was something on offer. Enough positives | :29:40. | :29:48. | |
to take into Tuesday night. You need to take your chances. | :29:49. | :29:55. | |
They're always needs to be 1 manager under pressure at all times. In | :29:56. | :30:05. | |
ATommy is a very good coach. He likes to play the game in the proper | :30:06. | :30:11. | |
manner. -- Tommy is a very good coach. Stating that his team is | :30:12. | :30:17. | |
playing well. They are doing everything right but not getting | :30:18. | :30:22. | |
results. He knows he needs to get results. That is a huge performance | :30:23. | :30:27. | |
and result. Coming so late, he would be happy enough with the point. To | :30:28. | :30:32. | |
get three points out of that game is a big plus. | :30:33. | :30:37. | |
St. Mirren have been struggling in terms of injuries. With Callum Ball | :30:38. | :30:43. | |
they have got somebody who can give them some presence. They have missed | :30:44. | :30:47. | |
that upfront. He has made an impression upfront. | :30:48. | :31:00. | |
It is good movement. He has come on and made his mark in the game and he | :31:01. | :31:04. | |
will be looking to start the next game. Come up from England and they | :31:05. | :31:10. | |
really need a presence up their missing Steven Thompson. Decent | :31:11. | :31:17. | |
movement here and gets his reward. Maybe not the best defending in the | :31:18. | :31:23. | |
world. She has drifted off the central defender and gone towards | :31:24. | :31:27. | |
the ball and earlier we saw him creating a bit of space for himself | :31:28. | :31:33. | |
with the good feet. That is another plus for Tommy Craig. After making a | :31:34. | :31:42. | |
mockery of the pundit's predictions, Hamilton were looking to continue | :31:43. | :31:52. | |
that. Before the game, we spoke to some very happy fans. Six games, 13 | :31:53. | :31:58. | |
point and sitting pretty at the top of the table. I think it is | :31:59. | :32:05. | |
incredible where we are, top of the league, so far, so good. It is | :32:06. | :32:12. | |
points in the bag which we did not expect. Fantastic. Good to watch, | :32:13. | :32:21. | |
brilliant football going forward. Great start to the season, surpassed | :32:22. | :32:26. | |
all expectations, we hope to keep it going. | :32:27. | :32:34. | |
Player-manager Alex Neill selects himself in midfield. With Martin | :32:35. | :32:40. | |
Canning out, Scotland where is the armband. Kilmarnock make one change | :32:41. | :32:50. | |
to the team. New head comes in to attack. -- new head -- Muirhead. Not | :32:51. | :33:10. | |
too far away with that effort. Did well to turn and get away from | :33:11. | :33:23. | |
Connolly. Finding Muirhead. The goalkeeper had to be alert to that | :33:24. | :33:35. | |
one. Gillespie. There is Crawford. Good curling effort. Fine strike | :33:36. | :33:43. | |
from the Hamilton midfielder. Craig Samson could take no chances there. | :33:44. | :33:53. | |
Barbour sending it forward. Has got the better of Gordon. Good stop by | :33:54. | :34:00. | |
McGovern. The goalkeeper advanced well and made the angle difficult. | :34:01. | :34:19. | |
Kilmarnock picking it up in the second period. Just could not hit | :34:20. | :34:42. | |
the target. The head away and again. Challenge. Good ball in. Magennis Is | :34:43. | :34:52. | |
getting closer. He had McGovern scrambling there. Good stop by the | :34:53. | :35:06. | |
Northern Ireland keeper. He has already scored this season. Denying | :35:07. | :35:18. | |
there. Johnstone. That is a lovely through pass looking for McKenzie. | :35:19. | :35:26. | |
McGovern to Hamilton's rescue again. Terrific pass from the finish | :35:27. | :35:31. | |
International. Hamilton were the better team in the first half, we | :35:32. | :35:38. | |
were the better team in the second half. We were resilient when we had | :35:39. | :35:45. | |
to the and we finished the last 20 minutes with a lack of experience in | :35:46. | :35:49. | |
terms of age. I thought they held their own for 20 minutes and was | :35:50. | :35:52. | |
very pleased. We have talked a lot about how it has been a great start | :35:53. | :35:57. | |
for Hamilton but also a great start for, certainly in relative terms to | :35:58. | :36:00. | |
last season. A lot of people would have thought | :36:01. | :36:16. | |
with Kris Boyd moving on that Kilmarnock might have struggled, but | :36:17. | :36:24. | |
it is twice as good. It can have the opposite effect. Kris Boyd was a big | :36:25. | :36:26. | |
player for them and with him leaving, they have to step up and | :36:27. | :36:33. | |
they have done that, share the responsibility that the Kris Boyd | :36:34. | :36:36. | |
had but it has been a great start for them and they will be delighted | :36:37. | :36:41. | |
with that. Kris Boyd has gone but they have Magennis upfront. Not his | :36:42. | :36:47. | |
day yesterday, but what does he bring? Josh is tall, strong, quick, | :36:48. | :36:56. | |
good in the air but does not score enough goals, that is the week right | :36:57. | :37:01. | |
in his game. If you are playing one up, he leads the line, he finds | :37:02. | :37:10. | |
space well. Unfortunate but a couple of headers, but great movement and | :37:11. | :37:13. | |
gets himself into a fabulous position but does not get enough | :37:14. | :37:19. | |
power on it. Another cross into the box, a little bit unfortunate to put | :37:20. | :37:24. | |
it over the bar but he has got something and is still young enough | :37:25. | :37:29. | |
to add the goals to his armoury. He is getting into the positions to | :37:30. | :37:33. | |
score, he just needs one to go in and he can go on a roll. He is | :37:34. | :37:40. | |
getting on the end of things. Hamilton dropping points, Inverness | :37:41. | :37:45. | |
could reclaim top spot with victory over St Johnstone. St. Johnstone | :37:46. | :37:49. | |
struggling with various injuries. Draper. Watkins. Spinning away from | :37:50. | :38:29. | |
Eastern. It is Shinnie's cutback and Mackay's effort which is deflected | :38:30. | :38:37. | |
behind. Useful looking attack. Anderson got himself in the way. | :38:38. | :38:43. | |
The home team dominating possession and it is Watkins! His shot is | :38:44. | :38:58. | |
deflected off target. Still no reward for total domination in the | :38:59. | :39:04. | |
first half from the home team. Came off the head of Anderson and now | :39:05. | :39:10. | |
Watkins for Dolan. He has a look up and plays it back in. Marley | :39:11. | :39:14. | |
Watkins! He scores his first goal of the season. Inverness hit the front. | :39:15. | :39:26. | |
Right on the hour mark. A speedy counterattack and a cracking goal. | :39:27. | :39:33. | |
Playing a big part for Inverness, Aaron Dolan. Left out of the team in | :39:34. | :39:41. | |
the first few matches of the season. Having his same now. That is Mackay. | :39:42. | :39:49. | |
He and Wallace leave it to each other. Shinnie Cuts it back. | :39:50. | :39:57. | |
Christie! Two goals in five minutes and Inverness in a really strong | :39:58. | :40:04. | |
position now. The Saints keeper got his hand to it but could not stop | :40:05. | :40:11. | |
it. And it was an horrific mix-up between Mackay and Wallace that led | :40:12. | :40:20. | |
to that. Can St. Johnstone give themselves some hope? Mackay to | :40:21. | :40:34. | |
Miller. Now it is Lee Croft. Miller's Cross, Brian Graham! He | :40:35. | :40:42. | |
makes it 2-1. In his third game for St. Johnstone, his second goal and | :40:43. | :40:53. | |
that brings the game back to life. Miller. Brian Easton's cross. And | :40:54. | :41:07. | |
Morgan. Off-balance as he struck it, the substitute and he fired | :41:08. | :41:20. | |
wide. Lee Croft's corner. Shinnie Escorts it to safety. Was there a | :41:21. | :41:30. | |
push here, certainly looked like it. Sitting at the top of the league, | :41:31. | :41:34. | |
important we got back to winning ways against a hard-working St. | :41:35. | :41:37. | |
Johnstone team who always give us a tough match, not much between the | :41:38. | :41:41. | |
teams and grateful that we are back to winning ways. Disappointing to go | :41:42. | :41:47. | |
a goal behind with another mistake. Come back well from 2-0 to force the | :41:48. | :41:55. | |
issue and that is when we showed the true side of ourselves but just | :41:56. | :42:00. | |
saying to the lads, it has to be for 90 minutes, not just the last 20. | :42:01. | :42:07. | |
Marley Watkins among the goals, John Hughes was raving about him and he | :42:08. | :42:14. | |
has been a player who has been important for Inverness at various | :42:15. | :42:20. | |
times. He kind of plays off the right or left. He can drift into | :42:21. | :42:23. | |
space and what I like about him, when he gets the ball wide he tries | :42:24. | :42:27. | |
to get into the box to get on the end of things. He gets his goal and | :42:28. | :42:33. | |
in another clip he does a similar thing and does not get the goal but | :42:34. | :42:39. | |
is drifting in and off the lines and he looks like a good player. One of | :42:40. | :42:43. | |
these players that Inverness have been good at finding from the lower | :42:44. | :42:46. | |
reaches of English football, bringing in and finding their feet | :42:47. | :42:52. | |
in the Scottish Premiership. Another one is Aaron Doran. They play either | :42:53. | :42:58. | |
wing but not as wingers. Watkins likes to come into the park, starts | :42:59. | :43:03. | |
outside but likes to get involved in the game and into the box. He is a | :43:04. | :43:09. | |
great find. John Hughes working with him on a daily basis and thinks very | :43:10. | :43:14. | |
highly of him. John Hughes somebody that you know well and things going | :43:15. | :43:22. | |
well for Inverness right at the top. John Hughes likes his teams to | :43:23. | :43:27. | |
retain possession and circulate the ball. It is all well and good doing | :43:28. | :43:31. | |
that if you don't have a cutting edge, but they do have and I like | :43:32. | :43:35. | |
the way that John Hughes manages team. Thank you very much. The | :43:36. | :43:41. | |
Scottish Premiership table looks good for Dundee United fans this | :43:42. | :43:44. | |
evening. It is a busy week in the League Cup | :43:45. | :44:04. | |
and we have live football on Wednesday night. | :44:05. | :44:10. | |
Coverage of all the games on radio and online as well. | :44:11. | :44:30. | |
It has been a momentous week for Scotland but the love of the game | :44:31. | :44:37. | |
still unites as, stacks of it to come on Sportscene on the weeks and | :44:38. | :44:45. | |
months ahead. From all of us here, good night. | :44:46. | :44:53. |
