Motherwell Manager Stuart Kettlewell Reflects on 2-1 Victory Against St Johnstone

Motherwell manager Stuart Kettlewell shared his post-match assessment following his team’s 2-1 win over St Johnstone. He stated: “I thought we started slow but as soon as we started turning the ball over we knew there would be a lot of open space and areas we could cause St Johnstone problems.” “That proved to be the case. We converted two really good chances. We started the second half absolutely fine but where the story changes is the penalty for St Johnstone.” “There was some nervous energy in the stadium, but we showed a bit of composure after they scored their penalty. It was just the last six or seven minutes when they had a lot of ball but our goalkeeper didn’t have a save to make at the end.” “It’s a good day’s work for us. We’re seven points better off than we were at this stage last season which is quite significant, and we’ve been in a national semi-final. So everyone can see there has been progression at this club.”
