Ester Sokler has made some impact.

The Aberdeen sub tries to squeeze in a third at the near post, but the HJK keeper gets a big hand to it.

At half time, Barry Robson would have asked them to show more fight and spirit - boy, have they done that in the second half.

Aberdeen have been the better team since they got to 2-1 and they're deservedly back in the game.

Just imagine a game got called off for a goalie getting hit with snowballs.

A message over the PA system says that throwing snowballs on to the pitch is strictly forbidden and the referee could stop the match for security reasons if it continues.

It has been made three times.

The referee has now asked Jonny Hayes to sort it out.

Have no idea what he's supposed to do.

Aberdeen fans are throwing snowballs at the HJK keeper and now the referee is off to speak to someone about it.

A wide free-kick from Jonny Hayes doesn't beat the first man then Aberdeen fail to create anything on the second phase.

Rangers XI: Butland, Tavernier, Souttar, Davies, Barisic, Lundstram, Cifuentes, Lammers, Cantwell, Danilo, Sima.

Substitutes: McCrorie, K Wright, Dessers, Lawrence, Matondo, Sterling, Roofe, King, Devine, McCausland, McKinnon.

Aris Limassol XI: Vana, Mayambela, Yago, Moucketou-Moussanda, Urosevic, Caju, Bengtsson, Szoke, Struski, Babicka, Kokorin.

Substitutes: Chrysostomou, E Sofroniou, Brown, Spoljaric, Stepinski, Dimitriou, Brorsson, Montnor.

HJK go up the other end and get two corners of their own.

Both also come to nothing.

Aberdeen win a corner, but Connor Barron's delivery is cleared.

This is definitely better from the Dons though.

Jonny Hayes looks to put Ester Sokler through one on one with the keeper, but the HJK defence just about cut it out.

Aberdeen seem brighter.

Away we go again.

Aberdeen have made a double change as Pape Gueye and Ryan Duncan make way for Jamie McGrath and Ester Sokler.

Slobodan Rubezic has had a torturous 45 minutes, I've got to say.

The conditions aren't comfortable but he has to defend better. He's been all over the place.

Someone just said to me "I have never been this cold in my life".

That does accurately sum up the conditions.

I have four layers on and am still perishing.

I don't know how they have managed to stay in the game. Apart form the goal there has been at least another seven opportunities for HJK.

They have had periods in the game where they have done reasonably well, where they have controlled the ball and built it up quite well, but the game should be out of their reach.

Helsinki have had so many opportunities and then Angus MacDonald, what a strike. Totally out of the blue, Aberdeen have barely made a chance.

They should be well out of it, they are not. The conditions are appalling, the surface is covered in snow.

If you look closely, you'll see they are using Angus MacDonald's boots.

The headline from this one is how on earth are Aberdeen still in this game.

They looked down and out at 2-0. Then, out of nowhere, Angus MacDonald produced a 30-yard thunderbolt to hand the Dons an unlikely lifeline.

The question is, can they grasp it?

To have any chance they will have to do a whole lot better in the second half.

A foot and a traction engine come to mind.

It had been a miserable half to forget for Aberdeen, that was until Angus MacDonald decided to leather one in from a mile out.

The Dons are all of a sudden right back in this.
