Aberdeen's Jack MacKenzie on taking inspiration from Kieran Tierney and Andy Robertson

JIM GOODWIN, the Aberdeen manager, had the beers chilling for him as left Fir Park on Saturday evening while Steve Hammell’s hangdog demeanour confirmed just how little there has been to celebrate for Motherwell of late. 

The Pittodrie side rounded off a fairly productive week with the rarity of a win on the road, only their third in 24 attempts, and a jump into third spot in the cinch Premiership. Motherwell remain a team in freefall with this defeat meaning they have now won just a single game in their last seven outings. 

Next up for Goodwin’s side is a trip to Ibrox on Saturday afternoon as they look to turn the screw on Giovani van Bronckhorst. Rangers are away to Napoli in their penultimate Champions League game this week and with the pressure firmly on the Ibrox side Goodwin will look to add to it.
