  • 25' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ester Sokler made 351 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

  • 35' Aberdeen FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 40' 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.
