POWER PLAY IN MOTION

FRASER MURRAY came spectacularly close to smashing a first-leg winner.

But the Kilmarnock attacker is adamant a success can still come in the return when Derek McInnes' side get to Belgium.

Killie are gearing up for Thursday's Europa League clash against Cercle Brugge.

They head to the Jan Breydel Stadium locked at 1-1 after David Watson's goal levelled the tie at the halfway mark.

Murray's rifled volley in stoppage time of the opening encounter almost gave McInnes' men a lead to take on to their team flight to Belgium.

But the Rugby Park winger insists aggregate victory is still achievable for the Ayrshire side.

He said: "I don't think I've hit a volley that sweet in my life and the keeper made an unbelievable save. I caught it nice and thought it would have too much power for him.

"Then I had a free-kick at the end which I practise in training and I was confident when I was hitting it. I just couldn't get it low enough.
