00:00for three scottish wins tonight because aberdeen lead here against noah by one goal to nil nisbit
00:06with the goal and you'll see all the goals of both the europa league and the conference league
00:10tonight at 10 30 on tnt sports one and on discovery plus so far so good for aberdeen here
00:20a one goal win was enough to see off hearts at the weekends we'll see whether one goal will suffice
00:26tonight in terms of the live standings in the conference league table with a win asking stand
00:30right now and with score lines around europe aberdeen will climb up to 27th place in that table
00:37number 24th and above where you need to be to enter the knockout round playoffs in the new year
00:44that's where noah are right now and aberdeen with two games to go beyond this one
00:49here against strasbourg in two weeks time and then away against sparse of prague on match day six
00:56can they make that match day six game count so far so good michael absolutely
01:02i think you know you mentioned it before in terms of
01:07performances not the most important thing at the moment is just getting results to build up momentum
01:12and the consistency of results certainly helps that it's a big second half coming up here joe
01:18and that in that sense that's vitally important for the european campaign but also the season as a whole
01:27that aberdeen continue to keep their noses in front here and get the three points
01:33well the striker being brought on here by sandra perkovich the coach of noah
01:38so it might be a slight change of shape we'll wait and see for noah here because science is more of a
01:49number nine style forward as opposed to gergic more of a winger
02:02I'm hoping this will be his first European win in charge of Aberdeen.
02:11Springing their step from their success against Hearts here on Sunday.
02:16Can they hang on here to make it back-to-back wins and maintain this revival in their season?
02:24It is Noah, the Armenian champion, to get the game going once again here.
02:30Aberdeen last kept back-to-back clean sheets at home in February.
02:39See if their defence can stand firm tonight.
02:42There's a foul on the goalscorer Nisbet, and you get their card shown by the referee.
02:47So straight after half-time, the man in the book there for Noah,
02:51for what was a clear drag back on Kevin Nisbet.
02:55Yeah, absolutely, you can see Nisbet just spinning away from Santini there.
02:59Clear fill.
03:03No doubt that the yellow card was deserved there as well.
03:07And it's a good start from Aberdeen to be able to get themselves up the part.
03:11Also for Nisbet just to start to feel positive about himself this season.
03:15He scores before half-time.
03:17Took the ball in well there, he turns away from the defender.
03:20It's small things, but it is important.
03:25So Jesper Carlsen with the Aberdeen free-kick.
03:29Again Milne and Canoes have moved forward to attack it.
03:31What a flat ball in though.
03:33He's come out to Loban.
03:34With his weaker left foot.
03:36And it's fixed up by Polvara.
03:38It's just beyond Sophie Keskinen.
03:40Good play in the wide area from young Loban.
03:42Back on his left foot.
03:43It's not the worst ball in the box at all.
03:44Just wonder whether there could have been a bit of better communication.
03:48Some dangerous playing out from the back there from Noah.
04:04Do invite that press of Aberdeen.
04:08There's Torarensen.
04:10That's Swalihi.
04:12Three to April with the ball, there's Ferreira.
04:16There's Ferreira, just off the bench, that number nine figure of Matthias Ayas posing some questions.
04:24There's a new threat to contend with now for Aberdeen.
04:28Yeah, well he started the move really well, Matthias Ayas comes back into him here.
04:34You can see he's trying to knock it round Knuster, in the end he gives away the free kick,
04:39but he took the ball in well, he spun it out wide and he was desperate to get into the box.
04:44Just showing exactly like you're talking about, he is an out-and-out front man.
04:57Smidge over 15,000 fans inside Boutardry tonight.
05:01Hoping their team can see this one through, flame the three points that will get them climbing up that conference league table.
05:08Maybe make it a wonderful Christmas for Aberdeen if they can seal their spots.
05:13That knockout stage come the new year, a lot of work to be done yet.
05:18Well it certainly would be a good Christmas present, that's for sure.
05:21I'm sure the board would be delighted with the income into the coffers, that would be a nice Christmas present for them too.
05:29I dare say a good number of dons with a book there, travels to Prague for match day six.
05:37It's unbelievable, week before Christmas.
05:40A bit of a chase on here for Mulder Hussainovic, the flag stays down, looks a bit tight one.
05:47Mulder Hussainovic continuing for now, laid back for Ferreira, same shot by him and now the flag goes up half an hour later.
05:53It is a real bugbear of football fans isn't it?
06:02They understand it, the principle in it.
06:05By the way, it's actually tighter than you think, which is probably the perfect reason why they allow it to play out.
06:15You know, just talking about the live table, just looking at there, quite incredibly, Larnakar sitting second in the table.
06:28Kesskanen, it's easy bobbing, this bit was lurking but now mags up on the far side but offside, so it'll be a free kick for Dowa.
06:45Kesskanen desperate to get in behind, he's just marginally off there.
06:52Yep, Larnakar 1-0 up away against Rijeka, sitting second in the table and I've got to be honest,
06:59last match day, Aberdeen playing against them, I was disappointed with them.
07:03I thought Aberdeen could have actually come away with three points over in Cyprus.
07:07expecting a lot more from the Cypriots having beaten Crystal Palace at Selhorst Park and put four past Alkmaar.
07:17up.
07:29It's a live table where a rapid Vienna are the team who have bottomed.
07:33The only team without a point in the conference lead this season, the former Austrian champions, they've lost all four games.
07:38Crystal Palace were the bookmakers favourites to win the conference league when the draw was made.
07:48They're away against Strasbourg tonight, Strasbourg who come here on match day five.
07:54Helder Ferreira, decent bobbin by him, chested down by Mother Hussain if it's looking for Boteas Ayas but Aberdeen would defend us back there to cover.
08:06You can see that front two posing far more of a threat so far, already trying to link up with each other.
08:14And you've got captain Helder Ferreira over in the wide area as well, start to see how they're beginning to string things together as an attacking sense.
08:28And you've got captain Helder Ferreira over in the wide area as well, start to see how they're going.
08:34Zenghari.
08:36That's a pass for Ayas.
08:38There's his ball in, and there's the equaliser.
08:41Noah are back on their full terms.
08:44And Nadine Mubo-Husainovic scores for the fourth match in a row in the conference lead this season.
08:51And just like that, the Armenian champions have pegged Aberdeen back.
08:57Well, you've got a sense that it was coming, really.
09:00The front two have looked dangerous.
09:03Mateus Ayas, Mubo-Husainovic causing problems.
09:09Space in the midfield, he's not offside.
09:13Running in between the defenders, and then he puts in a wonderful ball.
09:17I mean, look at that. That's pinpoint accuracy.
09:20And then Mubo-Husainovic is able to attack that, the diving header.
09:26Great ball in, the partnership up front.
09:32Coming up trumps.
09:33I think it goes through Mitov's legs in the end, the diving header.
09:37But we're only a couple of minutes into the second half, and you can sense the substitution almost immediately looking far more dangerous.
09:47And it's paid off big time for Noah.
09:53It's his eighth goal of the season. He has to admire the move there for Noah.
09:56It's terrific football.
09:58And Aberdeen's lead has been swept away.
10:01The Mubo-Husainovic scoring his eighth goal this season.
10:08Four in the conference league.
10:14Mateus Ayas has made a real impact coming off the bench.
10:17He has. I mean, as soon as, you know, his first touch of the ball, looking positive.
10:24Looking dangerous, really.
10:26And then starting to link up with his strike partner as well.
10:29Aberdeen have definitely got a different threat to deal with.
10:35I say different.
10:36They've just got a threat.
10:37They didn't have to deal with anything really in the first half.
10:44Here's Ayas.
10:46It's spring now in Noah's step.
10:49It's a goal late in the first half at Aberdeen.
10:51A goal just after half-time for Noah.
10:54Level out, what a piece.
10:57It's amazing when you look at this and you start to wonder,
11:00why on earth did it not start like that, Noah?
11:03Because the substitution looks far more positive.
11:11Ferreira, good take by him.
11:12Ayas goes for goal.
11:14But he caught it well.
11:15And with this win, you never know.
11:17Well held in the end by Mitov.
11:22And it's another strike on goal.
11:23I mean, yes, he doesn't catch it particularly well,
11:27but it's just more danger from Noah.
11:31You can really start to see them building in confidence.
11:34The front two causing chaos, linking up.
11:36The midfield are now in contact with the front two as well.
11:40And it's almost becoming wave after wave of attack here.
11:43Aberdeen have got to compose themselves.
11:46There's Paul Barrett.
11:49And Keskinen.
11:51Jensen's over that bit.
11:53Back for Keskinen.
11:55Couldn't quite find a way through there.
11:58Locked off by Centini.
12:00He should have played the one-two off of Nisbet.
12:03He had the chance when he stepped on the inside there, Joel.
12:07But he's right put it just to bounce a one-two off of Nisbet and get in behind.
12:12We've got a game on now.
12:13Here's Carlsen for Aberdeen.
12:16Loeben.
12:19Head by Centini.
12:21Further away then by Boakye.
12:25Tice Arias is actually just hobbling a touch the Noah at number nine.
12:31Aberdeen continue here with Oshish.
12:35It's going out for Jensen.
12:40Devlin.
12:42Carlsen.
12:43Great control there by Carlsen under pressure.
12:45Back heel for Oshish.
12:47Good ball towards Nisbet.
12:49Well, I'm not too sure.
12:51He saw that coming his way.
12:52Had to react quickly and put it over the top.
12:55Yeah, he's definitely caught in his heels.
12:57There's a lovely ball here from Devlin into Carlsen's feet.
13:00He does well to spin away and set up Oshish.
13:02But as this ball comes in, he definitely is just reacting late.
13:06Devlin's in front of him as well.
13:08He's anticipating somebody else is going to get a touch
13:10and it bubbles just in front of him.
13:12It's almost like he's trying to control it.
13:16And he's definitely just caught on his heels there.
13:18Triple change on the way from Yumi Selene for Aberdeen.
13:23Here's Keskinen.
13:25Here's Keskinen.
13:28That paying with Sangari.
13:32Much higher tempo game now.
13:36As we said again, that both teams will feel is there to be one.
13:39And for Aberdeen, again, that really must be one.
13:45That's those coming on.
13:46It's going to be Stuart Armstrong, who was terrific here on Sunday against Hartz.
13:50Hartz, who left out tonight.
13:54Lattertych coming on, too.
13:56And the club captain, Graeme Shinny.
13:59Off goes Polvara, so Shinny on for him.
14:03He's only had one European start this campaign.
14:05That was in Athens.
14:07From match day two.
14:08Off goes Nisbit, the goalscorer.
14:10So Lattertych now will have that job to leave the attack.
14:19Let's get into the other player who is departing to allow for Armstrong's introduction.
14:40He's going off Swalihi.
14:48In goes Loben.
14:49Armstrong's first involvement.
14:50Loben again.
14:52Here now by Santini.
14:53Not too far, though.
14:54Armstrong's nipping away once more.
14:57That's good ball from Krusta.
14:59Find a white man early.
15:03Armstrong.
15:06Knudsen.
15:08Now Jensen.
15:13A foul there by Boindier.
15:14He was strong from the guy.
15:18That will be a foul.
15:21Committed by the players just off the bench.
15:23Shinny.
15:24And straight in the book, the Aberdeen skipper.
15:28Well, frustration for Graeme Shinny, but...
15:31Again, this man...
15:32Matthias is doing really well.
15:36Always getting his body in between the man and the ball.
15:41First action of the game and he's picking up a yellow card, which is a concern in the middle of the park there.
15:48You're wanting him to be competitive, but he's been booked straight away.
15:51So off goes Gudmundur Tararinsson for Noah.
15:57Replaced by the Japanese midfielder Takuto Oshima.
16:08It's fresh snakes, but that's a bit harsh on Polvaro to be taken off in that midfield department.
16:12Aye, possibly, but I mean...
16:15I'm not sure what the linesman's flag for here, but...
16:21Just there's a sense of...
16:23They needed to do something, Aberdeen.
16:24Just to re-inject a little bit of life into the side after a shaky second half, getting pegged back to 1-1.
16:37He certainly wasn't envisaging that he's putting Shinny on his first challenge, he's going to get booked.
16:43Because that is a concern.
16:44That is a concern.
16:57Zashima.
16:59Tsengare.
17:01Swalihi.
17:03Overthrowing.
17:04What a tight offside call in this Noah goal, involving Matthias Ayas.
17:23It's a wonderful ball, and a great diving header as well.
17:34That's where they heat.
17:40Tsengare.
17:47Given away there by Helder Pereira.
17:49Straight to Oshish.
17:53Armstrong.
17:55Oshish.
18:01Did a moment.
18:05On he goes, to the byline.
18:07Hung up towards Nasatic and Armstrong arriving late too, but...
18:10That's not a fight for you.
18:12I don't know whether he just didn't get enough on it, or whether it just gets held up in the wind, but...
18:17It's good, positive play from Young Loban.
18:20Driving to the byline here.
18:23And then once he puts that...
18:26Just maybe stretching ever so slightly, he doesn't get enough on it.
18:29But...
18:31I've got to be honest, Joel.
18:32Nothing's coming down the left-hand side, you know.
18:35I just don't see Jensen as an attacking force at all.
18:38And it...
18:40It becomes, you know, the structural issue that...
18:43Still...
18:45In this system, there's too many square pegs and round hogs for Aberdeen at the moment.
18:48And if they're going to be playing that, then to me, they've got to have somebody that's holding the width out on the left-hand side.
18:58And playing higher up the park.
19:00Whether it's Keskin when he's on the park, or having Carlsen out here.
19:04Because it just feels like there is almost a dead end any time the ball comes over on the left.
19:09Come that way now, he's shitty, but there's too much on that.
19:14I mean, longer term, that's an area that Lutz-Fallen Steele will be looking at coming that winter transfer window.
19:23But in the short term, he's about finding a solution here tonight.
19:26Maybe they might have to re-check that shape and go back to it before again.
19:31Well, there's not...
19:32I mean...
19:33Yes, I mean, there's a debate at the point, but there's no way he's going to change that, you know, the back line.
19:37So that somehow, you know, he needs to look at something in front of it.
19:40You can look at it at the moment here.
19:42Devlin pushing right up into the midfield to try and get touch tight.
19:46But, you know, that in itself is...
19:49It's not, you know, it's far from ideal.
19:50It's not far from ideal.
19:55Milmaier trying to hold off, I'd say it's nice.
19:59Sangari.
20:00Milmaier diving in and Milmaier commits the free kick and gets himself a get-out card.
20:05See the third player boot now for Aberdeen tonight, Jack Mil.
20:12That's what you call halving somebody.
20:16Sangari just looking like he's starting to open up his legs in.
20:20Jack Mil...
20:22No.
20:23No more.
20:24No further.
20:27It's a yellow card every day of the week.
20:31But, yeah, I mean, there is...
20:33There's a little bit of a concern here for Aberdeen in regards to...
20:36Making sure they don't concede anymore, but how are they going to hurt the opposition because...
20:40Yes, great that they go 1-0 up at half-time, but they didn't create anything else.
20:49And in the second half it's been a lot of the same, pretty powder puff as an attacking sense.
20:57Deep in conversation.
20:58The manager with Peter Lieven.
21:02He's still got two more serves he can, mate.
21:06And still the best part of half an hour to go.
21:12Gustavo Sangari strapped up and fit to resume.
21:15So, a Noah free kick and...
21:18Again, with this windswerving.
21:20It's going to be hard to defend for Aberdeen.
21:25The back post seems a bit too deep, that one.
21:28A heavy touch from Muradyen.
21:32As he's going to play for a throw-in.
21:36The only Armenian player in this Noah team.
21:41There are strict rules actually back in Armenian domestic football.
21:43They have to have at least three Armenian players on the pitch at any one time.
21:48Different rules apply, of course, in the UEFA Conference League.
21:52So here comes then change to number four of the night for Aberdeen.
21:55And off goes Oshish.
22:01And Leighton Clarkson.
22:02He's done there coming on for him.
22:10That feels very much a light for like sub.
22:14Leighton Clarkson will look to get on the ball and try and dictate a little bit of the play.
22:19But he's clearly somebody that wants to get forward and affect the game as well, like Oshish.
22:26Leighton Clarkson made his European debut playing in the Champions League for Liverpool five years ago as a teenager.
22:31He moved here four seasons ago.
22:38He starts on match day one against Jack Sark.
22:40Came off the bench in Athens.
22:42Trying to make an impact now with just a quarter of the game to play.
22:46The passage can produce some special moments.
22:54He's got a couple of goals but Aberdeen so far both coming in stop and shine both coming off the bench.
23:00He's got a great winner at St Mirren a few weeks ago.
23:03He's got a player out there who can produce some magic on his European night at Pitaudry.
23:11That looked like it could have been a free kick there.
23:18So Gary just putting his arms on Lobin.
23:24Breaks the play there by Clarkson just off the bench.
23:28Armstrong, there he goes, fouled from behind by Buakye.
23:32Well, you can understand why the support are not happy.
23:36Surely got to pull the yellow card.
23:38It's a quick free kick, it's Carlsen.
23:40Very tight angle, took it off.
23:43And he wins his team a corner.
23:45That's good positive quick play.
23:48Clarkson getting on the ball, starting things.
23:51Carlsen able to get 1v1.
23:52Not a bad shot on target, making the goalkeeper work.
23:56But look, where does the goal come from as well?
23:59It's quick play.
24:00Getting the ball into the wide areas, letting them go 1v1.
24:03That's another moment there where they've got to speed things up Aberdeen.
24:07They've got to recognise where they can hurt their position.
24:10And it means giving the balls to the front men quicker.
24:15And swinging Gordon.
24:17Didn't clear that near post area away by Santini for Noah.
24:20Loban.
24:23Well, nearly a nice pass down the line there, but...
24:26Couldn't quite pull it off.
24:30See, that's not bad either.
24:31I don't mind that, you know.
24:35You're attempting.
24:36If that comes off, run behind.
24:38Not a problem at all.
24:43You've got to take risks with your passing, especially in that final third.
24:48Armstrong.
24:49Kuduista.
24:50Now Clarkson.
24:51Again, you see the problem here, Joe.
24:52The left.
24:53It just becomes a dead end.
24:54There isn't anything in there.
24:55It just becomes like a dead end and it's just recirculating the ball.
24:56You have to go out the other side.
24:57And a lot of the game's in front of the opposition at that point.
24:58Loban.
24:59Loban.
25:00Carlson.
25:02Kuduista.
25:03Kuduista.
25:04Now Clarkson.
25:05Again, you see the problem here, Joe.
25:06The left.
25:07It just becomes a dead end.
25:08There isn't anything in there.
25:10It just becomes like a dead end and it's just recirculating the ball.
25:11You have to go out the other side.
25:12And a lot of the games in front of the opposition at that point.
25:13Loban.
25:14Carlson.
25:15Got to get the ball to Carlson quickly.
25:16Get him 1v1.
25:17There isn't anything in there.
25:18It just becomes like a dead end and it's just recirculating the ball.
25:20You have to go out the other side.
25:21And a lot of the games in front of the opposition at that point.
25:25Loban.
25:26Carlson.
25:27This is a good handle for you at the near post.
25:28Got to get the ball to Carlson quickly.
25:41Get him 1v1.
25:42Isolate in the wide areas and let him go and try and take on.
25:45You know, when you're watching the game, you're thinking to yourself,
25:48he's not had enough of the ball.
25:49He's not been given it.
25:50Just keep feeding him.
25:51Keep it simple.
25:52Recognise where the danger is.
25:54And get him into the game.
25:57In the areas of the park where he can really affect it.
26:19Another goal in the game at Ibrox where Rangers in the Europa.
26:22They led Braga one at that half time.
26:27The Portuguese team back level there.
26:31In Glasgow.
26:33But Braga who won at Celtic earlier in that tournament.
26:37And they pegged that Rangers there.
26:40Played through the second half.
26:41And Ibrox 1v1.
26:43That's one.
26:44Nice.
26:45Nesecki.
26:49Great, great play from Loban.
26:56Really is.
26:57Niseki
26:59Great play from Logan
27:05Really is
27:06He read that pass perfectly
27:09Right on his touch
27:11His last moment of the game
27:13It looks like as well
27:14Yep, he's been taken off here
27:16And it's the last change of the game
27:18Being made here by Yumi Tebi
27:20To Nicholas Milanovic coming off
27:27I wonder whether it's going to be a change of the system
27:30Is he going to be a back four
27:32Because Milanovic is not
27:34He's not a wing back
27:37He may well play there
27:38But it looks to me as if it is going to be a back four
27:42Niki Devon had that secret message from the coaching staff
27:47We'll see
27:49If it produces a winning goal here for Aberdeen
27:53Remember Milanovic came off the bench
27:55Had a chance to win the game at Larnaca
27:57Didn't he a few weeks ago
27:58Related that one
28:00Yeah, so it does it actually looks like
28:11The back four is in play
28:13Jensen left back
28:15He's got Carlsen in front of him here
28:16Just play him in
28:17Jensen
28:19He does find Carlsen
28:21And he hits Tastowaghi
28:23On it goes from him
28:24And Milanovic just off the bench
28:27And he couldn't squeeze that one home
28:30But that was a good move there by Aberdeen
28:32It's a great move
28:36Simplifying it again
28:39Getting the ball into the wide men
28:41Carlsen plays it imperfectly
28:42But Milanovic has got to do better Joe
28:45He's got time
28:47And he misses it at the near post
28:50That's just too good an opportunity for Aberdeen
28:58To be passing up
29:00In the end he's probably about six yards out
29:02Ball slightly behind him
29:04And he chokes the shot
29:08At the near post
29:10But look at the way it's built
29:13It's just
29:14Simplified it
29:16Playing quicker
29:17Getting the ball into the wide men
29:18To really go
29:19Hurt this opposition
29:21Fantastic touch there by Milanovic
29:25Chiporth at this
29:28Fist at him
29:30A free
29:35Kick for Aberdeen
29:38The momentum is with the home team here
29:44And they make it count
29:45Another set please for them
29:47Armstrong
29:54Back for Devlin
30:07Breaks the way of Carlsen
30:12Shinny
30:13Valanovic
30:18Can he find a way through
30:21That was the answer
30:24Break back for Ayaz
30:26Now
30:27Towards
30:30Mulder Hussainovic
30:31Can you stir
30:34To be careful here
30:36He helping out
30:40To
30:42Shinny
30:42On that game
30:42They can't
30:43Be careful
30:45Aberdeen's way
30:48Yeah
30:49They've marshaled that well
30:50Mulder Hussainovic was
30:52Getting his first few touches
30:55For a long time
30:55He's drifted out of the game
30:56Almost completely
30:57Clarkson
31:02Need a win there
31:03To help that
31:04One but it won't
31:05Kind of play goes
31:07For the goal kick
31:08Well
31:10Back down under
31:14Next Thursday

31:33And of course
31:35Also on Discovery Plus
31:37Beranian
31:51Swalili
31:54Now where
31:57The other card
31:57For Milanovic
31:58The other cards
32:00Are adding up now
32:01For Aberdeen
32:02Similar event
32:05To
32:06Graeme Shinny
32:07They're blatant fouls
32:09And they're two
32:09Where
32:11They're pulling back
32:12The opposition
32:13Who are about to break
32:14But
32:16A little bit of frustration
32:17Is that
32:18In between
32:19Those two
32:20Bukie was
32:21Was running the risk
32:28Clattered into
32:30I think it was Armstrong
32:32And he got away with it
32:33Was
32:37Short here
32:43Dropping
32:43Deep comes
32:45Ayas
32:45That deflects away
32:47Behind for a
32:48No a corner
32:50they are a team who've been known for their late goals this season
33:00they've scored four goals in stoppage time alone
33:02it's going to be David Swalihi who will take this quarter
33:10their third of the game so far
33:11threatening the air there with the Husainovic being marked for now by Mill
33:20it's Mill who clears away Armstrong all the swerving
33:36Techie that's a swathe once again
33:43well it was a difficult one for Stuart Armstrong and edge the box because he's
33:46jumping ahead and you could just see the wind affecting it and he wasn't able to
33:51get any real purchase on the header
33:54I've heard your footballers say in the past that wind is the one thing you hate playing in
34:06you can take the snow you can take the rain but the wind really affects you
34:10it is the worst
34:12here's the out swinging corner and again that one just veers away was kept alive then turned away by Milanovic
34:20there's not too many of them kicking about here
34:34great for our notes either appear in the commentary box
34:38but he can't clear the lines here he's a shima
34:48well held up there by Ayas
34:50but Radian goes back to Ashima
34:52this is Santini
34:54and Helda Ferreira
34:57ominous moments these it's a good ball
34:59and it's Milanovic
35:01who took no chances there just
35:03just left behind for a corner again
35:07that's a good ball in from Helda Ferreira
35:13Milanovic is in a difficult position
35:19can he really afford to let that go
35:23he needs to
35:25just usher it behind and
35:29make sure
35:33Make sure
35:33make sure it goes
35:39for the corner
35:41corner
35:55centre wide to these towards the near post
35:57and it's touched behind again, goal kick given, the referee
36:05Has he changed his mind? Yes he has, I think there may have been some assistance from one of his fellow officials
36:12a corner has been given, did look that way in real time
36:16Yeah, it did, it looked pretty blatant there was a corner
36:21I don't mind that, you know, the referee was quick enough to correct his decision there
36:27clearly came off the, I think it was the shoulder of Clarkson
36:36The set piece, examination continues
36:41Contact made there by Santini
36:43Here's Armstrong defending, now applying the pressure
36:46and it was fair pressure, no foul given and Armstrong will try and get his team going
36:52Here's Devlin
36:54Now Schinney
36:57Taken up by Clarkson, out to Carlson
37:06Some red shirts moving forward here
37:08Carlson
37:11Going back the way though, there's Schinney
37:13There's Schinney
37:19Carl
37:20Too many touches, they need to speed it up, you know, you notice Averdino
37:33Most dangerous, it's fewer touches on the ball, get the ball onto those white men
37:39Carlson and Milanovic now, let them go and take the guys on 1v1
37:44And flood the box, get bodies in
37:46Clarkson
37:49Clarkson
37:51Oh Carlson
37:52Lucky take by him
37:54Lazatic on the turn
37:56Can he find a way here?
37:58And bending it, but was by Devlin
38:00But not quite bending and dipping enough
38:02I don't know why
38:04I don't know why
38:05Jesper Carlson doesn't just take this into the box
38:08He's playing it in a central area where Lazatic has got too many boys on him
38:14That's agonisingly close there from Nicky Devlin
38:17Unfortunately just going the wrong side
38:22Lazatic actually does well to set him up
38:28I just think Carlson, the ball comes
38:33Boerke just misjudges it
38:36He's got it on his chest
38:38He's into the box
38:39Keep going towards goal
38:40That was goal
38:43But he found suggested that the goalkeeper for you will do his time-wasting
38:48Pretty poor kick
38:49Straight out for an Aberdeen throw
38:55The stars of this year's Quilter Nation series
38:58We're back with their clubs in the coming days
39:00And we'll bring you every match live from the Gallagher program
39:04Which returns this weekend
39:06Starting with Newcastle Red Bulls against Leicester Tigers
39:09That's tomorrow night
39:11At 7pm on TNT Sports 1
39:14And we've got the last match of the Autumn's Nations series
39:17As Wales close their campaign against the World Champions South Africa
39:23That's in Cardiff
39:24At 2pm Saturday on TNT Sports 1 and Discovery Plus
39:32The foul there on Nikolas Milanovic
39:34So another free kick for Aberdeen
39:36Before that, Noah is going to make the change here
39:39The third change of the game
39:41And Helda Ferreira going off
39:43Which might be a relief to Aberdeen
39:45Because his service in those wide areas has been very impressive tonight
39:58Small in number, but they've made themselves hurt those Armenian fans tonight
40:00to the club captain
40:01головan is
40:03and
40:05the club captain
40:18Havana's
40:23and Bob Zoumian
40:27comes up
40:3235 years
40:37age
40:40more than 50 caps for Armenia
40:43over the years
40:44he's a free kick
40:48whips it well
40:49delivery that from Carlson again
40:5410 minutes to go
41:12at the stoppage time
41:13it's all or nothing really at this stage for Aberdeen
41:17one point from the game
41:28it wouldn't quite be over yet
41:29they have to win their last two games
41:31to have any chance
41:32of advancing
41:34along their three remaining games by far away
41:41on paper this is the one that appears to be
41:43the easiest task
41:45here's Milne
41:50to take the fight to no one
41:52quite squeeze that pass towards Carlson
41:54and Milne's there again
41:55battling with Ashima
41:57be careful there Milne
41:59one of those players on a yellow card for Aberdeen
42:01likewise Shinny who went diving in there
42:11here's Swalihi
42:15now Ashima
42:18it's just that miscommunication you can see between Armstrong and Lazzar
42:33it's just that miscommunication you can see between Armstrong and Lazzar
42:38Armstrong wins the ball back and he's looking for Lazzar it's just to hold his position for a second long
42:45fire in his feet and he can build the attack
43:03he's not really in a position to shoot at his feet and they can build it
43:06fire into his feet and he can build
43:11the attack he's not really in a position to be playing it longer
43:17instead the strikers running and beyond and the attack just breaks down
43:29they began
43:32the group with back-to-back defeats heading out
43:35the back-to-back draws
43:40yes
43:43it's a late drama here left at pitotry tonight
43:50it might get worse yet for aberdeen
43:57here's handball to me and the
43:59no
44:05caps him that's come off kanusta and goes out of play for a corner
44:21just in front of those traveling armenian fans go over the corner here
44:39play that right on the goalkeeper dimmits on meets off it'll be an in-swinging ball being
44:45here it is
44:53get to like that post but that header is wide and there was a push there anyway so
44:57free kick for aberdeen
44:58i've got to be honest i'm not sure
45:23there's a much in that doesn't really matter it would have been a buy kick or a free kick in
45:32pretty much the same position
45:41but aberdeen have got to do more
45:44they've really got to offer more as an attacking threat
45:48definitely trying to motor forward there but
45:56it's no
45:59so to attack with sangare
46:01but the heavy search we've gone away away with it and then milne cleared out for aberdeen
46:13by the
46:13go back to what we've seen in the first half you know for the for noah he'll be quite happy
46:30take a point another one on the board moving towards that
46:34that potential of qualifying out of the the league phase
46:43they're not the ones that are expecting anything else here
46:46it's all down to
46:52and so far they're not doing enough
46:56oh armstrong they're losing it could that be costly because no i have a chance to break out now
47:04with the husain of each day goal scorer
47:08shinny
47:09hushima
47:12linking with ayas
47:16hushima back towards ayasi again in came against him though
47:20there's a good pass by clarkson
47:23and here goes lazatich for aberdeen
47:35jensen
47:36it's so slow to get up
47:41carlson looks absolutely bust as well
47:46clarkson
47:47shinny
47:49now carlson
47:51he summoned something from deep within
47:53milanovic
47:59got past his man but then run out of room it's gone behind for a goal kick
48:04i mean when that ball goes into lazatich he's got space to run
48:09and he's just got no real support we're into the depths of winter but the beach balls are still
48:17they're almost burst to be perfectly honest because it looks like the european campaign is hanging by a thread
48:27they change here for noah
48:37another forward player being brought on for them the croatian
48:41marini jacobis
48:42so
48:50garay departing
48:53and that's two man
48:56sure against legging warsaw
48:57people at home and then dynamo kiev away
49:05as the table stands right now they're in
49:0823rd place which would get them into
49:11those
49:20mock-out ramp
49:23elves
49:25new year aberdeen right now
49:28at 33rd as things stand
49:30you
49:45you
49:47you
49:49The last time Aberdeen scored, two goals and more, and the game was almost two months ago.
50:06They've got the one here just before half-time tonight.
50:09Can they strike now late in this second half?
50:13The ring swirls around here again. It's so awkward for the players out there.
50:19Oh, no, a free king.
50:26I mean, I don't know how Dylan Loven was hanging out with regards to, you know, fitness.
50:37But I thought he was looking strong. I'm wondering whether, you know,
50:45unless it was an injury, unless there was a concern.
50:47I'd have kept him on the park.
50:55That's the pressure there, but safety dealt with by Figueroa, the wing goal for Noah.
51:01Sometimes you've just got that youthful exuberance and...
51:05An energy, and I think he was a bit of a threat down that right-hand side.
51:17I'd have put Nicky Devlin at left-back.
51:19Jensen's just not...
51:20Contributing...
51:23You go to a back four.
51:32That would have been the two guys that I would have been playing in the full-back position.
51:35But, I mean, look, it's by the by, because the front line, they've not done enough either.
51:40But, it's 4-4 for Noah here.
51:42It's a play square by Yakovic.
51:46Awkward for Mitov, but...
51:49No damage done, although it's had a play for a throw for Noah.
51:51Not where Aberdeen wants to be now, with time ebbing away.
51:58A shinny, Clarkson.
51:59Clarkson.
52:00Got a play forward.
52:06Getting all the way by himself, he Clarkson, but he overran it.
52:10And one bad by Hombard Zoumye.
52:17Aiyas now.
52:18That's well done by Lazatic.
52:21Den Armstrong.
52:24Here's Jensen.
52:26Aiyas now.
52:28Aberdeen fans lift that volume again.
52:30Jensen moves...
52:32...is forward.
52:33He finds Jesper Carlsen.
52:36Clips...
52:37...well by him.
52:39Just about hooked away by Miranian.
52:44In goes Shinny.
52:46That was a real blow to the face there of Graeme Shinny.
52:51He bounces straight up again.
52:54As you know, just by the way, straight back up.
52:58Blood pouring for his nose as well.
53:04Clearly a sore one there, but he recognises.
53:08There's no time to waste here.
53:10All eyes soon on that fourth official's board to see how much stuff Bisham will have.
53:24Armstrong there gives the ball away.
53:28Armstrong's not found a rhythm since he's come on either.
53:30It just feels like it's a little bit disjointed for Aberdeen.
53:36Carlsen looks like he's run his race.
53:39They need someday to be able to step up to the plate in the last few moments here.
53:44That's why I just look back at that chance that Milanovic had when he first came on.
53:59Good move, slipped him behind, six yards out on the angle, and he misses it at the near post.
54:07Just too good a chance.
54:08Just too good a chance.
54:09So we have at least four minutes of stoppage time to play.
54:20This is not where Aberdeen needs to be.
54:22No way, no hurry.
54:41So they confronted by deathly.
54:46There's no doubt.
54:47When you looked at the draw for Aberdeen in the conference league, it was a tough one.
54:54But, having said all that, you're still expecting Aberdeen to be competitive.
55:05And you look at that 6-0 drubbing in Athens, and then the draw that they pick up away against Larnaca,
55:13as I said, I felt like there was more for them there.
55:16It's this game here now.
55:17This is the one that's pivotal.
55:19And they've not done enough tonight.
55:27In goes Knusta.
55:31Yakadis.
55:34Swadehi.
55:38Now Oshima.
55:44Matthias Ayas.
55:46Spreads the play and finds his captain.
55:48Hanbad Zumyan.
55:52Knusta.
55:53That was awkward for him.
55:56Armstrong.
55:58Now Jensen.
56:00Sheward Armstrong.
56:02There's the OB pass.
56:04And here's Jesper Carlsen.
56:07And here's Jesper Carlsen.
56:09The backfield didn't come off though.
56:10Balakia, he was there.
56:12He is Muda Husainovic for now.
56:13And the flag has stayed down.
56:15For now.
56:16Now it's raised.
56:17The referee will play the advantage.
56:18And Aberdeen can push on again.
56:19The frustration is there.
56:21Aberdeen really needed the flag to go up early so they could get the ball.
56:23The ball down and get the counter-attack.
56:24Yes, but Carlsen was wasteful in that opportunity in wide area last time.
56:26Here goes Jensen.
56:27and Aberdeen can push on again, the frustration is there, Aberdeen really needed the flag to go up early so they could get the
56:38all done and get the counter-attack
56:43Jesper Karlsson wasteful in that opportunity in wide area the last time
56:51here goes Jensen
56:52it's the wacky Aberdeen fans imploring their team to advance now shinny still they push
57:07Carlson
57:11where is he going here going square for now there's no outlet to his right though
57:15Canusa, Stuart Armstrong
57:22this is Jensen back to Armstrong
57:27couldn't clear that first man though
57:31Armstrong it's a decent ball oh it's over the top
57:34I'm just looking at in the middle here who's that actually gets on the end of it it is Milanovic you're right
57:48the body's in there as well trying to compete
57:55it's Knuster that's in there as well but Milanovic that's a good chance he ends up getting a free header
58:01he's not at the target
58:18the wind's definitely wreaked havoc on the game is that especially the more that's going on but here we go
58:24last chance saloon stuff
58:32in goes Armstrong
58:37time's up now but one last chance to attack
58:40Milanovic
58:41in goes Milanovic
58:42in goes Milanovic
58:43but there goes the full-time whistle
58:46and so it ends
58:47what a piece
58:48at Pitochri
58:50Boos Ringo
58:51out there on that full-time whistle
58:54with Aberdeen held here to a draw
58:56by the Armenian champion
58:58Noura
58:58at half-time it was going so well
59:00Nisbit with a goal
59:02on the brink
59:06of half-time
59:07for the Dons
59:07his first goal of the campaign but
59:09back came Noah
59:11it was a lovely goal to level the game up
59:14scored by
59:14mother Husinovic
59:15their top scorer
59:17scoring for the fourth time in a row
59:20in the conference league this campaign
59:22but Aberdeen have back-to-back draws now after their
59:26back-to-back defeats
59:28to start off the group
59:30and it means with two games to go
59:33their hopes are slim now indeed of going through
59:35they have to win
59:36their last two games against Strasbourg and Sparta Prague
59:40and hope that might be enough for them
59:42they're 33rd in the lead table the way things stand tonight
59:46after a full-time score at Pitochri of Aberdeen 1
59:50Noah won
