    If Aberdeen can keep it this way until 60 minutes, I would throw Dante Polvara on.

    He's looked a threat in these games and has not looked out of place at all. Maybe he can nick another one.

    A wee reminder: Eintracht are winning in Helsinki.

    As it stands, that means Aberdeen MUST WIN in Greece to stay in the Conference League.

    Former Dundee & St Mirren forward on BBC Sportsound

    The first 15 minutes were absolutely excellent from Aberdeen. They defended really well and managed to score, but PAOK then score and the ship wobbles, as you may expect.

    Aberdeen haven't conceded again though despite some scary moments.

    It's a very respectable first half from the Dons.

    Aberdeen will be satisfied with the score at the break, but my goodness they have had to survive a real onslaught from a PAOK side who have really had them on the ropes at times.

    The Dons will have to find a way in the second half to get off the ropes and get themselves in to the centre of the ring.

  8. HALF-TIMEpublished at 18:32 Greenwich Mean Time 9 November 2023

    PAOK 1-1 Aberdeen

    Aaaand breathe.

    The Dons get to the break level, just about.

    Duk's sublime opener had Aberdeen in dreamland, but relentless PAOK pressure has followed Taison's leveller.

    I tell you what, I don't think I have seen so many last-ditch tackles and blocks in such a short period of time.

    The Aberdeen players are giving everything to try and get to the break level.

    Aberdeen can't make anything with a deep free-kick and PAOK rip forward at a scary pace.

    Konstantelias then sees two efforts blocked before a corner for the hosts is hacked away.

    Aberdeen are hanging on by the skin of their teeth.

    Panic stations in the Dons box.

    The ball is going all over the place. Does it hit the woodwork? Maybe. Someone then tries an overhead kick. Madness.

    They eventually clear.

  13. Eintracht lead in Helsinkipublished at 18:28 Greenwich Mean Time 9 November 2023

    Elsewhere in the group, Eintracht Frankfurt have taken the lead in Helsinki.

    That means, as it stands, Aberdeen need to win in Greece to stay in the competition.

    No-one in red fancies doing anything with Vieirinha's deflected cross and Stefan Schwab almost gets on the end of it.

    Ryan Duncan, coolest man on the park, then decides to knock a wee header back to his keeper.

  15. CLOSE!published at 18:23 Greenwich Mean Time 9 November 2023

    PAOK 1-1 Aberdeen

    Taison bends in a gorgeous ball with the outside of his boot and Stefan Schwab is sliding for it.

    He just can't get there and the ball bounces wide.

    It would be easy to be critical of Aberdeen, but you have to give PAOK credit.

    They've moved the ball exceptionally since scoring, moving it quicker with more purpose and pace. Aberdeen have struggled to deal with it.

    That's a nasty one.

    Jamie McGrath is caught late on the ankle by PAOK captain Vieirinha.

    Foul given. The VAR team aren't getting involved.

    PAOK are turning on the style just now.

    Aberdeen are hanging on, they need to find a way to keep themselves afloat.

    The hosts have jolted right into top gear since their goal.

    PAOK are cranking it up.

    Aberdeen survive a corner and another cross into their box, but the hosts are pushing.

  20. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 18:14 Greenwich Mean Time 9 November 2023

    PAOK 1-1 Aberdeen

    Now Aberdeen can count themselves lucky.

    Slobodan Rubezic slides to block a cross and diverts the ball off his own left-hand post.
