HJK boss happy with the points

HJK HELSINKI returned to winning ways in the Finnish league at the weekend with a 1-0 win over Haka.

FC Inter regained top spot when they won 6-0 away to KuPS Kuopio yesterday.

Former Hearts hitman Juho Makela, who fired a hat-trick in the 7-0 first leg midweek Champions League rout of Iceland side KR, grabbed the only goal of the game in the second half.

HJK boss Anti Muurinen said: "It was a difficult game, we didn't play as well as we did on Tuesday against KR but it was important for us to get the points even if it wasn't a pleasing display."
