Hamilton Accies star Dan O’Reilly says defenders need to help out more with goals, and hopes to add to the two he’s netted this season.Accies head into a Championship clash with Dundee at Dens Park this afternoon, and O’Reilly would like nothing more than to hit the back of the net and help them emerge with a priceless win.The Irish defender said: “It’s important for us to step up and score more goals.“The main priority is to defend, but if you can add a couple of goals to your game you’re obviously going to contribute to the team.“I’d like to get a couple more, so hopefully I can.”The Taysiders hold the advantage this season, with a 3-0 Premier Sports Cup group stages win at Dens Park and a 2-0 triumph at New Douglas Park on October 1.O’Reilly, 27, reckons there wasn’t much in that game, as Hamilton were chasing an equaliser to Lyall Cameron’s 29th-minute strike, only for Luke McCowan to net a second five minutes into stoppage time.“We’ve played them twice, in two different circumstances,” he said.“The first one was in the cup so it’s very hard to gauge, and it was very early in the season, whereas the last time I thought it was 2-0 but it wasn’t a 2-0 game.“We were chasing it at the end when they got the goal, so it was quite close.“They’re a good side.
