Aberdeen’s mini-revival was halted in demoralising trend as they crashed to a meek 6-0 Europa Convention League defeat by the hands of AEK Athens within the noisy OPAP Enviornment.
Jimmy Thelin’s aspect arrived within the Greek capital buoyed by transferring off the underside of the William Hill Premiership following back-to-back wins over Dundee and St Mirren.
However their hopes of constructing additional momentum and choosing up their first Convention League factors had been destroyed because the ruthless hosts eased right into a three-goal half-time lead.
The Greeks continued within the ascendancy after the break to go away the bedraggled Reds – who journey to Cyprus to play Larnaca in a fortnight – languishing on the foot of the desk with no factors and a aim distinction of minus seven.
