Mackie makes his point to McGhee
Aberdeen striker Darren Mackie is hopeful his match-winning strike against St Johnstone can help him force his way into Mark McGhee's starting plans.
However, he insists he is willing to play any part necessary to bring success back to Pittodrie.
The 28-year-old came off the bench to snatch all three points for the Dons only five minutes from time to make it back-to-back victories for Mark McGhee's new-look outfit after their opening-day hammering of Hamilton.
He said: "It was a bit of a sclaff but it hit the back of the net and it's three points, so we'll take it. I'm not sure if it took a deflection or not, I just hit it and looked up and it was going into the net. I was just delighted.
"Over the course of the 90 minutes I think we deserved our win.
"Hopefully getting the goal can help me force my way into the team. You want to start every game but it's the manager's decision who starts and you've just got to play your part in the squad."
