Aberdeen 3-3 St. Mirren: Post-match review, Stats, Key moments

The game really ignited in the second half after a VAR check led to St. Mirren’s penalty, coolly slotted home by Marcus Fraser at 55 minutes to break the deadlock. Aberdeen’s response was swift, with Dante Polvara netting the equaliser at 71, and just two minutes later Marko Lazetić put them in front for the first time. Substitutions played a big part too, as Marko Lazetić had come on just three minutes before his first goal, replacing Adil Aouchiche at 68, and his second at 85 was set up nicely by Stuart Armstrong.

St. Mirren showed real grit, pulling level twice. First, through Jonah Ayunga at 82 with an assist from Miguel Freckleton, but the real drama came in stoppage time with Richard King’s 99th-minute equaliser, assisted by Conor McMenamin who’d only been on since the 77th minute replacing Jayden Richardson. Earlier, Fraser Taylor picked up a yellow card at 28 minutes and was involved in the VAR incident at 53, before being subbed off at 78 for Liam Donnelly. Those late changes, including Richard King coming on for Scott Tanser at 78, helped St. Mirren snatch a point right at the death.

Aberdeen lined up in a 3-4-2-1 shape, which allowed them to control the midfield and push forward effectively, with Dante Polvara shining in a central role by grabbing a key goal. Marko Lazetić made a big impact up front after coming on as a substitute, netting twice, while Stuart Armstrong provided creativity with an assist before being replaced by Sivert Heltne Nilsen late on. Partnerships like that between the midfield and attack helped them overturn the deficit twice.

St. Mirren set up in a 3-5-2 formation, focusing on a solid backline and quick breaks, with Marcus Fraser stepping up to score from the spot and Jonah Ayunga adding a vital goal in attack. Richard King, who came on as a sub for Scott Tanser, proved decisive with his injury-time strike, assisted by Conor McMenamin after he replaced Jayden Richardson. Fraser Taylor was busy in midfield but picked up a yellow card before making way for Liam Donnelly.

Coral’s Man of the Match goes to Dante Polvara, who really stepped up for Aberdeen with a crucial goal that sparked their comeback. Overall, his performance was a standout in a game full of twists, helping the Dons fight back from behind.

Aberdeen have just drawn 3-3 at home to St. Mirren, leaving them sitting seventh on 18 points after a solid run of three wins and two draws in their last five league games. They’ll be looking to build on that form when they face Dundee away on 6 December at 3pm, with the opposition currently tenth on 12 points. A win could help them push towards the European spots, especially as they’re in decent shape and Dundee are lower in the table.

St. Mirren have just come away with a 3-3 draw against Aberdeen, which halts a tough spell of three losses and one draw in their previous four league outings, keeping them eleventh on 11 points. They host Dundee United next on 6 December at 3pm, with the visitors eighth on 16 points. Picking up three points here would be massive for them to climb away from the bottom and gain some momentum after that battling point on the road.
