Hamilton Accies boss John Rankin hailed his charges after they climbed of the bottom of the Championship table - and revealed three of his stars played through the pain barrier to help them sink Inverness.
The New Douglas Park side defeated the Caley Jags for the second time in three days, as a Dan O'Reilly header and a Connor Smith penalty either side of a Scott Allardice strike for the visitors earned a 2-1 win off the back of a 3-0 success in the Highlands.
Rankin was thrilled for his stars as they made it five games unbeaten in the league to move two points clear of Arbroath at the foot of the table.
