Kevin van Veen has dedicated his 22-goal haul to the boo boys who criticised his early-season form, and says his impressive tally is really for the Motherwell fans who were always behind him.
The 31-year-old Dutchman notched a double in 33 minutes of Saturday’s 3-0 home win over Livingston, and was only denied a hat-trick by a VAR call, with Max Johnston bagging the third in 34 minutes.
Van Veen has scored seven goals in his last four games, is loving life at Fir Park, and had a message for those who doubted him – even when he had 10 goals to his name by the end of October, in a struggling team.
