Jonny Hayes opened the scoring for Aberdeen in the 9th minute with a low left foot volley from seven yards out after a corner from the right by Niall McGinn. Two minutes later Stuart Armstrong made it 1-1 with a left foot shot to the right corner from just outside the penalty area.[3] In the 92nd minute, Tom Rogic got the winning goal when he received the ball 40 yards out and made his way into the right side of the penalty area before clipping the ball with his right foot over the goalkeeper from three yards out from a tight angle.[4]
