Youth was again well represented in the line-up against Celtic at Pittodrie last Saturday, The visitors took the first-half honours a deservedly led by a single goal at the interval, but it was Aberdeen's turn to gain the upper hand in the second half with Russell Duncan equalising three minutes after the restart and coming close to adding a second goal with a free kick later in the game.
A 1-1 draw, however, was a fair reflection of an even contest.
