Events

Match Events

  • 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against St. Johnstone FC and Aberdeen FC has kicked off!
  • 5' 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 Oday Dabbagh suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 15' Aberdeen FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 15.
  • 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Barry Douglas, as he is very good at scoring at McDiarmid Park with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 25' Adama Sidibeh needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 8 Yellow cards this season.
  • 30' Stephen Duke-McKenna has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 50 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 35' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 40' St. Johnstone FC is showing some good football. However, St. Johnstone FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 45' It looks surprising St. Johnstone FC does not make any changes. Ante Palaversa has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 50' 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.
  • 55' It’s high time Jimmy Thelin made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
