Hibs Draw: Three Late Aberdeen Goals - A Heartbreaker at Pittodrie

So, the game against Aberdeen. Ugh. Let's just say it was a rollercoaster, and not the fun kind. You know that feeling when you're this close to victory, only to have it snatched away? Yeah, that was Hibs at Pittodrie. We were cruising, looking good, then bam – three goals in the dying minutes. Brutal. Absolutely brutal.

A Dominant First Half, Then…

The first half? Pure Hibs dominance. We were all over them, creating chances, controlling possession. It felt like a goal was inevitable. We were playing with swagger, the kind of swagger that makes you think, "This is our game to lose." Little did we know…

The Second Half Shift

The second half started similarly – a few near misses, some good build-up play. We were pressing, pushing for that second goal to really put the game to bed. Then, the wheels started to come off. Aberdeen, smelling blood, began to push forward, and it all went downhill from there. It felt like a slow-motion car crash – you can see it coming, but there's nothing you can do to stop it.

Three Goals in the Dying Minutes: A Nightmare Scenario

I’m not going to lie; watching those three goals go in was gut-wrenching. The defense seemed to completely fall apart. It was like watching a house of cards crumble. One moment, we're on top of the world, the next, we're staring at a 3-2 draw. Talk about a sucker punch! I'm still reeling.

Analyzing the Collapse

What went wrong? Well, a few things, I think. Firstly, fatigue possibly played a part. Secondly, Aberdeen’s late substitutions injected some much-needed energy into their attack. And finally, perhaps a touch of complacency crept into our game. Whatever the reasons, the result is the same: a disappointing draw.

Looking Ahead: Learning From Mistakes

This game wasn't a total disaster, though. There were definitely positives to take from the first half. We demonstrated some excellent attacking football, creating numerous opportunities. This performance, albeit imperfect, provides a valuable foundation for improvement. It’s about learning from our mistakes, tightening up defensively, and keeping that same intensity for the full ninety minutes.

This draw hurts, there's no denying that. It feels like a missed opportunity. But there's another game around the corner, another chance to bounce back. We just need to put this one behind us, learn from it, and keep pushing forward. Come on, Hibs! Let’s get that win next time! We’ve got this!
