KANE Hester had to be reminded of his striking qualities by his manager before shooting down Scottish Cup heroes Kelty Hearts in midweek.
Hester netted his 11th and 12th goals of the season in City's impressive 2-0 success over the League 2 leaders at Borough Briggs on Tuesday, see Kelty Hearts TV highlights below.
City boss Gavin Price revealed how he had to show Hester footage of his hat-trick against last season's league leaders Queen's Park to help get the player focused on doing a similar job on Kelty.
"I had a wee heart-to heart with Kane this week," said Price.
"I just felt his body language in games at times wasn’t good.
"Last night (Monday) we watched a video of the Queen’s Park game and it was so apparent the difference in how he was interacting on the park and his body language and how he pressed defenders.
"That’s why he scored three goals in that game and that’s why he was a constant threat (to Kelty on Tuesday).
"If he plays like that, his body language is right and he is focused properly on the game and what he has to do for the team, that is what you will get from Kane Hester."
City's forthcoming midweek match at home to Annan Athletic has been put back a week.
It was scheduled for February 8 but will now go ahead at Borough Briggs on February 15 at the request of both clubs.
