Ross County manager Jim McIntyre
"I don't think we did enough to score a goal. We haven't created anything. We didn't show enough belief. We restricted Aberdeen to very little but we've got to do the other side of it as well and I've not had to say that often. Paul Quinn had to deal with it (the dangerous cross that led to the own goal), it was a skiddy surface. It was preventable but these things happen. We've got a run of games and we need to pick up points. We've got to make sure that we bounce back."

BBC Scotland football pundit John Robertson
"There's nothing wrong with Aberdeen. He has gone back to a tried and trusted formation. Everyone knows their position well and he has a goalkeeper who has not let in a goal yet. Their formation gives them a platform to play. It looks like the Aberdeen team of last year, when they were really dangerous. They would cut teams open on the break."
Post update
Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes
"I'm delighted with our third clean sheet in a row. We are closer to the team at the top than we were at this time last year. We've now got Celtic at home on Sunday, which threatens to be a brilliant affair. We are capable of winning against any team in the league."
Post update
Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes
"A lot of the build-up play was excellent. We hit the bar twice, lashed opportunities over the bar. We had real control of the game in the first half without showing enough quality. To come up here on a Monday night, when it's cold and wet, it's never easy. I'm really pleased."
Post update
BBC Scotland football pundit John Robertson
"If you're an Aberdeen fan going home tonight you'll be delighted, apart from that last five minutes. Hayes was great, Flood was marvellous. He allows the rest of his team to play. When they lose the ball he's first in there to win it back."

Aberdeen are now in fifth place in the Scottish Premiership table, just three points behind leaders Dundee United. County are two points behind Motherwell and three adrift of 10th-placed St Mirren.
FULL-TIME
Ross County 0-1 Aberdeen
Aberdeen win in Dingwall for the first time, and deservedly so. Ross County miss the chance to lift themselves off the foot of the table but they don't look like a team thinking of relegation.
Post update
In what is surely the final move of the match Willo Flood fires over the Ross County bar from 20 yards.

Defender Shay Logan nicks the ball off the toe of Graham Carey after Jake Jervis had set him up just inside the Aberdeen box. A late leveller looked on there.
Post update
Barry Robson's first job since coming on as an Aberdeen sub is to take a corner kick which the commanding Jackson Irvine heads clear. When the ball comes into the County box again two red-shirted players fall to the turf but referee Willie Collum awards a free-kick to the home side.
Post update
Fair play to David Goodwillie as Scott Boyd steams through the back of him, sending the Dons sub flying but taking the ball. Goodwillie dusts himself down and gets on with the match.

Eight minutes to go and Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes sends on David Goodwillie for fellow striker Adam Rooney.

The match has restarted with Barr taking hesitant steps on the sidelines. He's now coming back on, with a bit of a limp.

Darren Barr is in evident pain as he lies on the turf. Then Staggies physio is holding his left knee. It looks like he twisted it trying to control the ball.

Shay Logan finds himself in acres of space down the Dons right and crosses for Peter Pawlett whose attempted chip over keeper Mark Brown has too much strength.

At the other end Graham Carey's dipping shot is parried into the path of Liam Boyce by Dons goalie Scott Brown but the County player, on just a few moments for Michael Gardyne, hits it high over the bar.
HITS THE WOODWORK
Peter Pawlett nicks in ahead of County defender Scott Boyd to meet Shay Logan's cross from the right. He knocks it away from the big centre-half, turns and lashes it against the cross bar from the corner of the six-yard box.

GOAL
Ross County 0-1 Aberdeen (Quinn og)
Niall McGinn races down the right wing and crosses for Adam Rooney. However, Paul Quinn's attempt to clear goes horribly wrong as he knocks it past his own goalie from six yards.
Post update
Despite that last Aberdeen move, County have had more possession in the opposition half after the interval.
Post update
Jonny Hayes makes space down the left with a burst of pace, reminiscent of former Nottingham Forest winger John Robertson, and lofts it to the back post, but credit goes to County's Darren Barr who leaps to head clear with Dons striker Adam Rooney lurking behind him, planning his goal celebration.
Post update
County's Michael Gardyne brings a long, high ball down in a manner that would have Dennis Bergkamp positively purring. He turns and crosses fiercely into the box but the Reds defence holds firm.

John McEnerney: "#bbcscotfootball Alan and Dermot O'Neill goalkeeping brothers in the League of Ireland and their dad Robert was a keeper too!"

Neither side has made any changes for the second half.
Post update
BBC Scotland football pundit Willie Miller
"(Ross County manager) Jim McIntyre must be happy with what he got in the first half. Sometimes you have to play that long game. The longer it goes at 0-0 the more Aberdeen will be frustrated and the more opportunities might come County's way. I think 0-0 would be a good result for Ross County."

HALF-TIME
Ross County 0-0 Aberdeen
Well, we've had to wait for chances at Victoria Park but they have emerged from the mist. Aberdeen defender Ash Taylor's header across the face of goal that was chested by Scott Boyd almost into his own net and Adam Rooney's flashing header wide were the closest things for the Reds.
Post update
The lively Adam Rooney meets Niall McGinn's clever ball into the County box and nods it just wide. Aberdeen have threatened a few times now, while for the team in dark blue there's really only been a Paul Quinn header wide.

CLOSE!
Michael Gardyne turns beautifully on the right wing, bamboozling the Dons defence, and curls a cross into the six-yard area where Paul Quinn darts in ahead of dozing Ash Taylor and flashes a header a foot wide of Scott Brown's right-hand post. That's more like it from the Staggies!
Post update
Goalkeeper Scott Brown, all in green, jumps to clutch a high ball into the Dons box. A nice "take", I believe is the phrase.
PENALTY APPEAL
Shay Logan's cross from the right is too heavy for his Aberdeen team-mates in the box but Jonny Hayes picks it up at the corner flag out on the left. He lofts it into the penalty area and the on-rushing Ryan Jack skites across the turf, with his arms up to claim for an Aberdeen penalty but Willie Collum gives the home side the decision.

That's better from Aberdeen, as the energetic Shay Logan moves up the field, cuts the ball onto his left foot and clips a shot a few feet over the bar from 22 yards.
Post update
Hmm. A Brown in goal for each team - Mark for County and Scott for the Dons. I'm trying to think of another match where the keepers have had the same name. I can think of examples where opposing fans have called the keepers the same thing, but that's not what I'm after. Anyone help me with a piece of trivia?
Post update
Mark Brown makes a crucial save for County after Niall McGinn's free-kick from the right to the back post is headed towards goal by Ash Taylor and deflected towards his own goal by big Scott Boyd.
Post update
BBC Scotland football pundit John Robertson
"Aberdeen seem slightly more threatening but County are showing enough resistance and threat on the break. You can see that Jim (McIntyre) and Billy (Dodds, his assistant) have spent a lot of time on shape - it's 4-1-4-1."
Post update
Michael Gardyne thunders a volley over the Aberdeen bar that dips eventually, but just not soon enough. Plenty of power there. Plenty. We're struggling for an effort on target here.

Niall McGinn gets on the ball for Aberdeen down the left but his delivery into the box is headed clear by Paul Quinn, the former Motherwell defender.

Post update
Ross County win a corner within 30 seconds as the rain chucks it down. Graham Carey's kick is cleared but he picks up the ball again and curls in a cross with that lovely left foot of his and the ball is cleared, not quite in the style of Rene Higuita's famous scorpion kick but something approaching that, as Dons defender Mark Reynolds slips and throws up a trailing leg to divert the ball clear.

Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes
"My take on Jimmy's (Jim McIntyre's) team is they look like a team that can win points. We have always had a hard game here. We want to bring a strong performance. We are on a good run of late. There was a lot we liked against Hamilton so the same boys get the opportunity again. It will be one up top - Adam Rooney will be up there. A lot of people are saying we should be playing with a front two. After the Hamilton away game (a 3-0 defeat) we had to get back to having a solid base. We want to be a team that is difficult to play against but one that carries a goal threat. The pitch looks magnificent. It's a bit greasy so the players will need to concentrate. It could be a bit slippy."
"The pitch is in fantastic condition. It's been bucketing down for four or five hours but it has stood up well, so credit to the groundsman. We can't go gung-ho (against Aberdeen) because they have a lot of pace on the counter. This is the first opportunity since we came in the door to get off the bottom. A win tonight would see us jump above Motherwell. Aberdeen have done extremely well since Derek (McInnes) took over. The players we inherited have a great determination to work hard and to take on board what we want to do. We have made progress but we are up against a good side. Richard Brittain has a bit of a bug. Martin Woods replaces him."
Post update
Ross County manager Jim McIntyre previewing Dons match
"What we have tried to do is build up confidence levels and the sure-fire way of doing that is by getting results. The players are constantly encouraged to express themselves and do what they do well but, at the same time, stay concentrated and remain organised and do the ugly side of the game better than what we have been doing. That's a key message we have been giving to them because it's hard enough winning games at this level without giving the opposition a helping hand."
Post update
County are propping up the Scottish Premiership table with a mere five points, but under Jim McIntyre they have won one, lost one and drawn two of their last four games. You suspect this could be a tricky game for them, though, even at home, against Aberdeen.
Post update
We hear Aberdeen are unchanged for the trip to Dingwall - that's in terms of personnel, rather than getting into strips and tracksuits.
Post update
Good evening, all. The dark nights are with us, we can see our breath in the autumn air and the floodlights are bathing Victoria Park in bright light - it's perfect for a game of football. Ross County welcome Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership. Kick-off is in half an hour.
