Aberdeen Hit 26-Year Low as Dundee United Win Deepens Goal Drought

Jimmy Thelin says the team has hit rock bottom before Saturday’s visit to Motherwell.

Overview

  • Dundee United beat Aberdeen 2-0 at Tannadice through Ivan Dolcek and Bert Esselink, leaving the Dons bottom with one point and no league goals from five matches.
  • Post-match, Thelin conceded the situation is “rock bottom,” citing tension and poor execution, and he called for a reaction at Fir Park.
  • Supporters aimed “sacked in the morning” chants at Thelin, with reports indicating growing pressure on the board to address the manager’s position.
  • Aberdeen’s scoreless league run has surpassed 450 minutes despite a summer rebuild, with new arrivals including Stuart Armstrong, Kevin Nisbet and Jesper Karlsson still settling.
  • United moved up to third, Dolcek scored for the fifth straight Premiership game, and the club hold an option to buy him from Dunajska Streda with talks planned.
