So hopefully, like I say, that will give us some form of excitement.

Yes, Aberdeen won down to the United 0-0.

A really hard-fought clash.

Not hugely entertaining, but better than I feared it might have been before the game.

Aberdeen carved out the first chance when a ball through the middle found Olusanyi, who raced in on goal, but he was pressurised by a defender.

and he couldn't beat Richards.

Dundee United were edging things though, and a punt upfield was taken on well by Strain.

He fired the ball across goal, but Sapsford just couldn't arrive in time to make any sort of connection.

The home team, a bit against the run of play to be honest, went ahead on 19 minutes.

Impressive work by Olusanya, and he set up Armstrong.

to finish calmly into the bottom corner United tried to hit back Sapsford took up really good position in the box for United but just as he was ready to threaten and maybe fire the ball into the goal mouth

Up popped Guillaume Fee with a brilliant tackle in the box.

It was one of these ones you had to get it right or it was a penalty and Aberdeen cleared the lines.

The balance though was tipping in favour of the Dons.

Aguier was booked for a tackle on Ola Sanja, a couple of yards outside the box.

And Nisbet's free kick, it came off the wall and behind for O'Connor.

Not too bad a match, quite tricky conditions.

A very cold, blustery win coming in off the North Sea.

But in front of a crowd of over 18,000, it's Aberdeen 1, Dundee United 0.

Yeah, full-time Aberdeen 2, Dundee United 0.
