Doc:we arenot faraway
Hamilton Accies coach Gary Doctor believes his side aren’t far away from their first Scottish Women’s Premier League 1 win of the season, despite slumping to a second straight defeat.
Simone Mcmahon’s flighted corner somehow found its way past the defence and Carys Hopkins to give Spartans a 78th-minute winner in a game that looked to be heading for a 0-0.
The defeat came on the back of last week’s defeat against Celtic, and Doctor said: “We’ve come so close in both matches. The endeavour of the players again was fantastic, but I don’t think we could say we played as well as we did last week.
“I don’t think either side deserved to win or to lose, in the end the goal typified the game, with a bit of good fortune about it.
“We just didn’t make enough chances of our own.
“We’re not far away; I think if we can score the first goal in games like this we can get confidence.”
