Aberdeen’s mini-revival was halted in demoralising fashion as they crashed to a meek 6-0 Europa Conference League defeat at the hands of AEK Athens in the noisy OPAP Arena.
Jimmy Thelin’s side arrived in the Greek capital buoyed by moving off the bottom of the William Hill Premiership following back-to-back wins over Dundee and St Mirren.
But their hopes of building further momentum and picking up their first Conference League points were destroyed as the ruthless hosts eased into a three-goal half-time lead.
The Greeks continued in the ascendancy after the break to leave the bedraggled Reds – who travel to Cyprus to play Larnaca in a fortnight – languishing at the foot of the table with no points and a goal difference of minus seven.
