Murphy aims for Europe

MOTHERWELL striker Jamie Murphy has his sights set on a third consecutive European jaunt after netting the only goal against Kilmarnock at Fir Park.

Murphy's deft header in the 69th minute proved to be his second winner in a row following his goal against Hibs, who are now just three points ahead of the Lanarkshire side. The Steelmen have gone nine games unbeaten under Craig Brown and Murphy admits their ultimate aim is now the Europa League.

"The first priority is to get into the top six with the split coming and then, who knows?" he said.
