Jim Goodwin was “humiliated” by Aberdeen’s 5-0 thumping to Hearts at Tynecastle and admits he can't get his head around how bad his team were.
Without even playing that well, Robbie Neilson’s men found themselves 4-0 up at the break, seemingly torpedoing their opponents’ hopes of catching them in third place in less than 45 minutes. Josh Ginnelly’s opener was followed up by a final strike by Michael Smith. Liam Scales’ handball allowed Lawrence Shankland to net from the spot before setting up Ginnelly’s second and Hearts' fourth just before the interval. Cammy Devlin made it five in the second half and it could have been worse for the Dons, who had a late consolation from Marley Watkins chalked off after a VAR check.
“I’m extremely embarrassed by the scoreline,” said Goodwin. “I know the players will be feeling the same. We’ve let everyone down again and that's the bottom line.
