- 5' Jamie McGrath is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Aberdeen FC tonight.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Dimitar Mitov made 195 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' Kevin Nisbet doubles the advantage! 0-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 20' 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.
- 25' Simon Murray has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 4 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 30' Dundee FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 32' A stunning finish from Topi Keskinen — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 37' A quiet spell here at Kilmac Stadium at Dens Park. Aberdeen FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
