Motherwell on brink of 'incredible achievement'

Manager Paul Brownlie says a top-six finish for part-time Motherwell would be an "incredible achievement".

Should Brownlie's side beat Aberdeen on Sunday they will confirm their top-six place with a game to spare before the split.

"We're within touching distance, we're nearly there, and it would be an incredible achievement for everybody at the football club," he told the BBC's Behind the Goals podcast.

"Until it's done, we can't take our foot off the gas. But when it is done, we'll enjoy it.

"I understand the task we have this weekend, we play Aberdeen, a tough game, Scott [Booth] has done a lot of work to try and develop the squad at Aberdeen.

"We went there just before the turn of the year and won 6-0. It was one of our best performances of the season, especially for the second half, we went in 0-0 at half-time.

"The players in the second half that night were unbelievable, and that was a huge turning point for us."
