Motherwell interim boss Stuart Kettlewell says he felt a confidence within his side that they could beat Hearts – even though few others did.
Kettlewell says there were plenty of people who were willing to kick a club when it was down, but the players have shown a remarkable resilience to take six points from their last two games against Hearts and St Mirren.
Goals from Job Obika and Blair Spittal gave Motherwell three points that probably did burst a few coupons.
