Aberdeen's perfect start to the season continued as Jimmy Thelin's side swept away League 2 Spartans to book a place at Hampden in the Scottish League Cup semi-finals.
A host of chances followed before the break, the best of them falling to Kevin Nisbet, but after scuffing his shot from close range the striker later redeemed himself to tap in Jack MacKenzie's excellent cross just before half-time.However, the tie was effectively over 45 seconds after the restart when Slobodan Rubezic picked out Leighton Clarkson, who nodded in Aberdeen's third goal.
A comfortable home victory against a League 2 side is not the most impressive of Thelin's 11 wins in a row. But here there was not a moment when the result was in question such was Aberdeen's slickness with the ball and intensity without it. They knocked out top-flight Ross County in the last round to reach their first national cup quarter-final, having also got the better of Championship side Livingston in the group stages.
