Hearts’ Alexandros Kyziridis insists him and his teammates are taking things a game at a time, as the Jambos extended their lead on Celtic to eight points yesterday.

The Greek winger netted his side’s second in a 3-1 win over the defending champions, with a Dane Murray own goal and a Lawrence Shankland penalty also helping the Edinburgh side on their way.

But Kyziridis was keen to play down any title talk just yet.

“[I feel] amazing. Lots of feelings, but just for today. Tomorrow we need to be focused on our Wednesday game” he said post match.

“I don’t want to talk about that [title bid], it was just a game. So many games are left, so we just need to be focussed on every game, game by game.”

The summer recruit’s fifth goal of the season comes days after him and his wife introduced their newborn son to the world.

“By far the best week of my life. It [preparation] was hard for me, but I will need to get used to it.

“I sleep well, thanks to my wife! She looks for him, while I sleep, so I sleep well, thanks to her.”

Impressive strikes from outside the box are becoming a calling card for 25 year-old, but he believes this group of players won’t be getting carried away with their fine start just yet.

“There is no pressure. We are enjoying it and we have to continue like this.

“For us, it’s important to see it game by game. We don’t want to see what happens in the future, no one knows. We just need to be humble and do our job, and this is what I will do.”

Kyziridis is yet to be capped for the Greece national side, but the Hearts fan-favourite is eager to change this.

“It’s one of my targets, for sure.

“It’s a honour to play for your national team, I’m waiting and if they need me, I will be there, and I know that we play against Scotland!”

Hearts travel to St. Mirren on Wednesday as they hope to maintain their unbeaten start to the league season, with the Paisley side the only team to defeat them domestically this campaign when they dumped them from the Premier Sports Cup in August.
