Motherwell’s Cup Focus After European Win | Glasgow News

Motherwell’s European dream is alive after a stunning 2-0 win over HJK Helsinki, but manager Alfred Johansson is keeping his feet firmly on the ground—focused entirely on Sunday’s Scottish League Cup showdown against Stenhousemuir. Star striker Ibrahim Said lit up the pitch with both goals, earning rave reviews from Johansson, who praised his talent while stressing room for growth. Despite the euphoria of securing a Conference League playoff spot, Johansson remains laser-focused on the cup tie, calling it a “final” for his squad. With fans already booking flights to Germany and former player Andy Halliday applauding Motherwell’s consistent, progressive style, Johansson’s calm leadership has kept the team firing on all cylinders—even as key players depart. He’s also eyeing a new goal-scoring forward to strengthen the attack, but for now, the energy of 8,000 roaring supporters at Fir Park is fueling every step toward Ochilview.
