Duk insists Aberdeen may have lost the battle against Celtic, but 'the war is not over'.
The Portuguese attacker took to his Instagram story in the wake of the Hoops' 6-0 victory over the Dons at Hampden in the semi-finals of the Scottish League Cup on Saturday night.
Brendan Rodgers' side swept the Pittodrie outfit aside with ease at the national stadium, as Daizen Maeda scored an impressive hat-trick in Glasgow's southside.

Both Aberdeen and the Hoops remain level on 28 points at the summit.
