Matthew Kennedy was able to bring the score within one goal with his goal in the 91st minute. Since winning 1-0 against Dundee United on November 12, Aberdeen have now lost each of their past four matches, which is their longest run of successive defeats since losing five in a row in October 2021. Jim Goodwin's team is now in fourth place in the Scottish Premiership league, one spot below fifth-placed St. Mirren, and tied on 25 points with them after 19 rounds of play because of their recent string of dismal performances.
