Events

Match Events

  • 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Pittodrie Stadium!
  • 5' Aberdeen FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 10' Scotland international Christopher Cadden has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 15' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Jack Ross will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 20' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Jake Doyle-Hayes suffering a number of foals already.
