UEFA Conference Matchday 3 – AEK Larnaca / Matchday 11 – Motherwell

It’s been a week of drama both on and off the pitch — and the latest episode of the AFC DONScast has all the reaction, news, and updates you need.

Aberdeen earned their first UEFA Conference League point of the season in Cyprus with a disciplined display against AEK Larnaca, before returning to Pittodrie for a 1–1 draw against Motherwell. Jesper Karlsson’s stunning goal was the highlight, but defensive lapses proved costly once again.

Manager Jimmy Thelin reflects on both matches, while we bring you the latest club news — including reports linking Sivert Heltne Nilsen with a move back to Norway, and international call-ups for Dimitar Mitov, Topi Keskinen, and Marko Lazetic.

There’s also a look at the fantastic £50,000 raised for Aberdeen FC Community Trust through the Northern Lights limited print series, plus updates from Aberdeen Women’s Sky Sports Cup campaign and the weekend’s SPFL and Highland League Cup results.

And as Scotland edge closer to a place at the 2026 World Cup, we preview the national team’s decisive qualifiers against Greece and Denmark.
