Late Stewart Strike Earns Aberdeen Draw Against Falkirk

ABERDEEN, Scotland (Interstat) — Substitute Barney Stewart scored in the 89th minute to salvage a 1-1 draw for Aberdeen against Falkirk in a Scottish Premiership match at Pittodrie Stadium on Saturday.

Falkirk forward Kevin Nisbet opened the scoring in the 73rd minute, assisted by a teammate, and was later shown a yellow card. Stewart’s late equalizer denied the visitors a victory that would have extended their recent strong form. The result leaves both teams in their respective mid-table and lower-table positions in the league standings, with Falkirk sitting above Aberdeen. The draw matched the projection from Interstat’s game simulator, though Falkirk had entered as a slight favorite according to statistical models.
