Young Dons continue unbeaten run.

The Aberdeen youth team kept up their impressive recent form with a comfortable 3-0 win over Inverness Caledonian Thistle in Inverness this afternoon. The Dons made the perfect start as Neill hit a superb 22-yard shot into the top hand corner after only three minutes. The goal was set up by MaCauley. The young side was playing good passing football and extended their lead in the 26th minute when McCauley was once again the provider. This time he set up Shields who hit a superb strike from 25 yards that gave the Caley keeper no chance.

After the break the Dons continued to control the game and Shields grabbed his second in the 62nd minute after collecting a great pass from Bruce. Young Michael Paton, making his debut at this level, almost added a fourth late on but was unlucky to see his effort go wide.

Neil Cooper spoke to Redweb after the match and was delighted with the result as his team continued their unbeaten run. "It was a very good win considering we had six regulars missing. I'm very pleased with the effort of some of the younger boys. I thought Michael Paton from our development squad did exceptional well in his first game.

"We were slightly slack at times, but that was to be expected with some many new boys. It was particularly pleasing to give some of the other young lads a run out with Jordan Reid and Martin Skinner getting on."
