It was a disappointing remembrance Sunday for Aberdeen who played brilliantly for the majority of the game and if you can find anybody who would say the Dons didn't deserve anything from that game, find them and bring them to me!
McInnes stuck to his usual formation which featured Rooney leading the line while the visitors set up to attempt to nullify Aberdeen's attacking threat.
The first half witnessed an end to end affair as Aberdeen soaked up the Celtic pressure and were counter attacking effectively. The Dons opened the scoring ten minutes before the break through Rooney who managed to bundle the ball over the line following Celtic keeper Zaluska dropping the ball.
It was parity at Pittodrie at half time however as Johansen's shot deflected off Reynolds and into the net.
The second period was predominantly Aberdeen who were creating the goal scoring opportunities. McGinn passed up some chances which he will be disappointed did not find the net. If he did we could have saw ourselves a couple of goals clear, yet we were not and were made to pay.
A last minute corner (which should never have been awarded) was tapped home by Van Dijk as the ball fell to him in the six yard box. Celtic left with the points in their black and white striped Jersey with a black mask and black rucksack. Robbed.
Despite it being such a sickening result we must remember seasons are not won and lost in a single match so we have to move on. Onto Partick Thistle we go!
