St Mirren dealt 10-man Aberdeen their third hammer blow in a week with a stunning 3-1 win after being awarded THREE penalties in a Christmas Eve cracker.
Stephen Robinson’s men only converted one of the three but still ran out winners, coming from behind to secure the victory with a Kelle Roos own goal after Mark O’Hara’s spot kick hit the post then the keeper and into the net. O’Hara scored the second spot kick, Jonah Ayunga then missed one and in injury time Greg Kiltie delivered the final blow from 40 yards with Roos stranded upfield after going up for a corner.
Saints were in action for the first time since the 1-1 draw with Rangers on November 12 but their visitors have packed in two matches against the Old Firm in the past week, losing both late in the matches and boss JIm Goodwin was looking for a response. What he got was plenty of endeavour but terrible defending that cost his side dear.
