'I'll need a lot more goals' - Bowie on battle for Scotland place

"He's got a massive journey ahead of him," said head coach David Gray of Kieron Bowie after the Hibernian striker's display in Saturday's 2-0 win over Dundee."

"The pleasing thing for me is he's back on the scoresheet and he keeps getting himself in those positions," said Gray. "I believe there's a lot more to come from Kieron. "It's not just goals that he brings to the team, there's the unselfish work he does that goes unseen at times."

"Obviously everyone wants to play for their nation," said Bowie when asked about the prospect of going to a World Cup. "I've managed to do that a couple of times, but that would be another level and hopefully a bonus that might happen. "I'll need a lot more goals. If I do the basics well, the goals will come."

Kieron Bowie ended a nine-game scoring drought by scoring and assisting in Hibernian's 2-0 win over Dundee, after earlier missing two close-range chances. Bowie made his Scotland debut as a substitute in June and remained in the squad after scoring a standout goal against Partizan Belgrade. He later had a late cameo against Belarus but was omitted from the decisive qualifiers against Greece and Denmark, putting him behind team-mates involved in the Denmark win. Head coach David Gray praised Bowie's positioning, unselfish work and potential. Bowie said he wants more international involvement and must focus on scoring more goals.
