Hamilton Accies goalkeeper hails analysis team after penalty shootout triumph over Ross County

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Ryan Fulton refused to take the credit for sending Hamilton Accies into the last 16 of the Scottish Cup and heaped praise instead on the club's analysis team for doing their homework.The in-form Accies goalkeeper followed up a sterling showing in a 1-0 league win over Morton the previous week with an inspired display to send Premiership side Ross County crashing out on Saturday.Fulton thwarted the Staggies time and again as 120 minutes of football ended goal-less, keeping out Ross Callachan, Kazeem Olaigbe and Jordy Hiwula Mayifuila to name just a few.He then delivered in the shootout to save Jordan White's spot-kick and help seal a 5-3 victory for Accies, booking a home tie with another Premiership side in Hearts next month.But modest Fulton said: “Pottsy [goalkeeping coach Brian Potter] and the analysis team do the work."As soon as extra-time was finished, they came over and helped me out a bit."At least I managed to get one, that was the main thing.“We worked on White and we had an idea where he was going, so it has worked out well for us.“I guess after making saves during the game, you can be a little bit more confident going into the shootout and you just want to make sure it’s not all for nothing.“It’s nice to go through to the next round because everyone dug in and did their part."Accies boss John Rankin said in his post-match interview he could feel the confidence in his group before they stepped up for the shootout.And Fulton said: "We’re all together.

Even before the shoot-out, we felt belief in the whole game."You could see that, us putting our bodies on the line at one end and creating chances at the other end.”It's now three wins on the spin for Accies with a SPFL Trust Trophy quarter-final win over Clyde
