Football

Neil McCann hopes Kilmarnock's dominant 3-0 victory over Aberdeen marks a resurgence for the club.

Kilmarnock manager Neil McCann expressed his desire for the team to "catch fire" following their decisive 3-0 Scottish Premiership win against Aberdeen. The victory at Rugby Park on Saturday, January 31, ended a challenging 17-game winless streak for the Ayrshire club, a run that had lasted four months. This result marked McCann's first win since taking charge of Kilmarnock earlier this month.

Goals from Brad Lyons, Bruce Anderson, and Tyreece John-Jules secured the three points for Kilmarnock. Aberdeen captain Graeme Shinnie received a straight red card during the second half. The dominant performance moved Kilmarnock six points clear of bottom club Livingston in the league table, offering a significant boost to their position. McCann hopes this comprehensive victory provides a crucial turning point for the squad's season.
