Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at McDiarmid Park. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' st. johnstone fc are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined aberdeen fc backline.
  • 10' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 15' Supporters expect more eagerness from Topi Keskinen, as he is very good at scoring at McDiarmid Park with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 20' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering st. johnstone fc that had 261 games and scored 255 goals.
  • 25' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Mats Knoester made 233 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 30' Daniels Balodis is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for aberdeen fc so far.
  • 35' Adama Sidibeh has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 10 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 40' The home supporters are growing impatient. st. johnstone fc must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 45' Oday Dabbagh has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 50' Kevin Nisbet has been relatively quiet despite scoring 52 goals in his last 307 appearances.
  • 55' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. aberdeen fc needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 56' St. Johnstone FC make a change. Adama Sidibeh trudges off to be replaced by Victor Griffith on 56 minutes.
  • 61' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 62' The crowd applauds Shayden Morris as he leaves the pitch. Leighton Clarkson steps in for Aberdeen FC.
  • 63' The whistle greets Jack MacKenzie as he departs to be replaced by Jeppe Okkels.
  • 68' Another substitution for Aberdeen FC to replace Oday Dabbagh by Pape Gueye on 68 minute.
  • 71' The whistle greets Stephen Duke-McKenna as he departs to be replaced by Graham Carey.
  • 72' Benjamin Mbunga-Kimpioka has so much to prove this time. He replaces Mackenzie Kirk on 72 minute.
  • 77' 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 Sven Sprangler suffering a number of foals already.
  • 82' Aberdeen FC make a change. Topi Keskinen trudges off to be replaced by Ester Sokler on 82 minutes.
  • 87' Taylor Steven is ready to make an impact after coming on for Barry Douglas at the 87 minute mark.
  • celebrates a vital win. Three points that could prove pivotal come season's end.
