Matchday 14 – St Mirren / Matchday 15 – Dundee

December has exploded into action for Aberdeen, and this week’s AFC DONScast captures every major moment from a breathless start to the month. 

We open with a wild midweek thriller at Pittodrie. Aberdeen and St Mirren produced one of the most chaotic halves of the season, trading blows in a 3-3 draw packed with VAR drama, momentum swings and a late equaliser that denied the Dons all three points. Marko Lazetic hit a double, Dante Polvara struck, and the Red Army lived every second of a frantic finish. The only downside: confirmation that Gavin Molloy will miss up to eight weeks with ligament damage. 

The response? A statement win at Dens Park. Aberdeen imposed themselves from the start, with Adil Aouchiche delivering a ruthless double and Kevin Nisbet adding a late clincher to seal a 3-1 victory over Dundee. The result stretches the unbeaten run to eight matches and firmly re-establishes the Dons in the top six. Momentum is real — and growing. 

There’s also major international news. Scotland’s World Cup return now has a clear path after the draw in Washington DC placed Steve Clarke’s side alongside Brazil, Morocco and Haiti in Group C. Dates, venues and kick-off times are locked in, and anticipation is accelerating as 2026 edges closer. 

Off the pitch, the episode tackles Aberdeen’s strong rebuttal to claims surrounding the beachfront community stadium project, plus reaction to Emmanuel Emegha’s suspension at Strasbourg ahead of Thursday’s crucial Conference League clash at Pittodrie. Add in the club’s annual remembrance tribute, a full lower-league and Highland League roundup, Aberdeen Women face Falkirk in the Scottish Cup, and vital festive ticket updates, and it’s another packed edition.
