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' St. Johnstone FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Aberdeen FC backline.
  • 10' St. Johnstone FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
  • 15' It looks surprising Aberdeen FC does not make any changes. Jeppe Okkels has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 20' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering St. Johnstone FC that had 258 games and scored 253 goals.
  • 25' Dimitar Mitov is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Aberdeen FC so far.
  • 30' Sam Curtis has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 35' It’s high time Simo Valakari made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 40' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 45' 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.
  • 50' Shayden Morris has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 55' Leighton Clarkson has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 10 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 56' Victor Griffith gets the nod from St. Johnstone FC. He replaces Adama Sidibeh and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 61' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Oday Dabbagh made 178 appearances and scored 20 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 62' The Aberdeen FC manager makes a substitution. Shayden Morris departs to be replaced by Leighton Clarkson.
  • 63' Aberdeen FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Jeppe Okkels is hanging Jack MacKenzie on the field on 63 minute.
  • 68' Pape Gueye is ready to make an impact after coming on for Oday Dabbagh at the 68 minute mark.
  • 71' Stephen Duke-McKenna makes way for Graham Carey at the 71 minute mark. A tactical switch from St. Johnstone FC.
  • 72' The whistle greets Mackenzie Kirk as he departs to be replaced by Benjamin Mbunga-Kimpioka.
  • 77' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
