The best teams in world lose games. We won't feel sorry for ourselves

Devlin says it's now down to how Jambos react - and they'll graft to make it right

- BY SCOTT BURNS

CAMMY DEVLIN knows all eyes will now be on how table-topping Hearts react.

The Jambos lost their unbeaten Premiership run when they crashed 1-0 to Aberdeen at the weekend.

It ended their 12-game run and people will be looking to see if it is a minor blip or if it could genuinely derail them.

But it’s not as if the panic button is going to be pushed at Tynecastle because they are still four points clear at the top of the Premiership, although Celtic have a game in hand.

Derek McInnes' men head to Motherwell on Saturday and Devlin wants to use their Pittodrie pain to come back from Fir Park with three points.

Devlin, who captained the Jambos at Aberdeen, said: "I think that's what the best teams do, if you look back in every league.

"We're in Scotland where Celtic in the last few years have won the league.

"If they've had a loss, usually in the next game, they turn it around and turn it into a positive result.

"It's about us. We've just spoken there as a group. This was going to happen. It's about just being men.

"Let it hurt for the next 24, 48 hours, but when we come into training, there's no point feeling sorry for yourself.
