Hard work has put Ross County in top-six picture, says Malky Mackay

Ross County manager Malky Mackay insists his players deserve the credit for putting themselves in top-six contention after embracing the hard work and dedication needed to improve.

County recorded back-to-back wins for the first time in the cinch Premiership season when they won 1-0 at Motherwell on Wednesday to follow up victory over St Johnstone.

From being bottom on December 11, County have risen to eighth and are just two points off the top six with four games left until the split.
