EWAN WILSON had only ever experienced the thrill of scoring a goal for Beith Juniors – and one of those was a rocket.
But after netting his first strike in the professional ranks for Motherwell, the Fir Park kid insists he is ready to shoot for the stars.
Wilson kept his cool to slam Stuart Kettlewell’s side ahead in Sunday ’s 2-0 win over Aberdeen which was beamed out live on TV.
His 34th-minute opener from Tony Watt’s cutback arrived in the academy product’s 30th appearance for the club.
The 20-year-old had spells on loan at Stirling Albion and Albion Rovers.
But it was only during a short loan stint in the sixth rung of Scottish football with Beith that he ever bulged the net – including a ferocious 30-yarder against Arthurlie.
And it’s something the versatile Scotland Under-21 international has vowed to add to his game on a more regular basis after breaking his duck in the top tier.
