However, referee John Beaton awarded the visitors a spot kick at the death after checking his pitchside monitor and ruling that Alex Gogic had handled a Leighton Clarkson shot inside his own area.Miovski netted from 12 yards to level the match – but the St Mirren players were convinced the striker had made a double connection with the ball and the late, late equaliser was only allowed to stand following a VAR check.
The Dutchman fumbled a Keanu Baccus shot early in the second-half and Kiltie pounced on the rebound and netted. Fortunately for him, the goal was disallowed after a lengthy check. He did well to get quickly off his line and block an Olusanya effort with his leg after the forward broke from inside his own half. His team would have been hammered without him.Sucker punch doesn’t begin to describe Hayes’ freak opener for Aberdeen.
