Impressive Aberdeen put Raith Rovers to the sword to as they booked their place in the last 16 of the Premier Sports Cup.
Jim Goodwin enjoyed the perfect warm up for the Scottish Premiership kick-off with Bojan Miovski 's penalty alongside goals from Ross McCrorie and Jonny Hayes ensuring a an unblemished group campaign as well as a seeded spot in the next round. Ian Murray's Championship outfit appeared to be the toughest test of the group stage with Aberdeen facing League One and Two opposition up to this point, but the Dons closed out the start of the campaign in style.
It's the early momentum the Pittodrie boss would have been desperate to see from his side with Celtic waiting for the opening day of the season after the Dons' lacklustre campaign last term. Ange Postecoglou's champions won't want to let Aberdeen dampen flag day in Glasgow's east end and will provide the toughest possible test for Goodwin's revamped squad.
