Well with spring in their step after shoot-out

Motherwell midfielder Mark O’hara hopes their feel good factor can help them to a famous win in Israel.

O’hara sensed Motherwell were still on a high when they took on Aberdeen on Sunday after their dramatic Europa League win over Coleraine days earlier.

Well had lost a two-goal lead and Bevis Mugabi to a 90th-minute red card in Northern Ireland before triumphing on penalties as goalkeeper Trevor Carson kept a clean sheet in the shoot-out.

O’hara then netted from the spot inside four minutes at Pittodrie before

Christopher Long doubled their lead four minutes later and Mugabi rounded off a comfortable 3-0 victory midway through the first half.

O’hara, who previously played with Kilmarnock, Dundee and peterborough, aims to stay on cloud nine when Motherwell take on Hapoel Beer-sheva for a place in the Europa League playoffs tonight.

The 24-year-old said: “Last Thursday wasn’t ideal circumstances, we would have been delighted to get a comfortable win.

“But sometimes winning in that manner gives you a lift as well, because we went from such a low to such a high again.

“I think that’s why we started so well on Sunday, everyone was still on such a high. Hopefully the high will continue.”

Bevis Mugabi is suspended for Well’s clash in Israel.

The central defender was sent off in the 90th minute against Coleraine in the second qualifying round before Motherwell triumphed on penalties.
