Maurice Malpas believes luck favoured Kilmarnock
|
Motherwell manager Maurice Malpas refused to criticise his players after Kilmarnock's late winner in a 1-0 victory at Fir Park.
"We dominated the game, but we just didn't have our shooting boots on," he told BBC Sport.
"Everybody says Kilmarnock should have beaten Aberdeen on Saturday. They got their luck back tonight.
"We had all the possession, all the chances, all the game, but we paid for a lack of concentration at the goal."
Goalkeeper Graeme Smith had to go off injured just after the break.
Jefferies revealed that Smith had suffered a back injury that could make him a doubt for Saturday's visit to Celtic Park.
