John Hughes happy with Inverness Caledonian Thistle clean sheet

Inverness Caledonian Thistle boss John Hughes showed his delight at his side's defensive display in their victory away to Aberdeen.

Danny Williams's first-half goal was enough to guarantee the Highlanders a win for the first time in six games, but it was the performance of another forward that caught the manager's eye.

Hughes told BBC Radio Scotland: "Clean sheets win you football matches and when you have a guy like Billy McKay in your team, you're always capable.

"We were a bit lacking in a physical presence with suspensions and injuries, but we stood up to it."

Inverness are currently fourth in the Scottish Premiership, six points behind third-placed Motherwell.
