Dons loving life at the top

Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes vowed his team would enjoy being top of the Scottish Premiership but remain focused after a 2-0 win at Fir Park extended their lead to four points.

Adam Rooney’s double in what McInnes described as a “very dominant performance” secured Aberdeen’s seventh consecutive league victory and clean sheet.

The Irishman opened the scoring in the 36th minute after some poor defensive work from Motherwell, who did not get going as an attacking force until the final quarter.
