FT: Aberdeen 2-3 Dundee
Aberdeen interim manager Peter Leven tells BBC Scotland: “Really frustrating. I thought we started really well, score a goal. Then score another goal [Nisbet’s disallowed strike from Lyall Cameron’s free kick].
“It looked like he [referee Steven McLean] put his whistle to his mouth, dropped it, watched the goal go in and then brought it back. Lyall says he didn’t say wait for the whistle so we’re confused on that one.
“We stopped playing football, they equalise and then there’s the red card. We need to be better at dealing with a long ball. But he’s cut across him, I’m not sure what he can do and I don’t know why we’re punished twice. But we’ve got to take it on the chin.
“I thought at times we were good in the second half. We get it back to 2-2 and it’s got to be a good point in that game. We turn the ball over too easy, we’ve got to go up the line and gain territory. But we gave it away and don’t defend the shot.
“We’ve got to take out chances and go two or three-nil up. But we get a wee bit nervy and stop doing what we did early on. That’s two red cards in two games – it’s not good enough.”
