Liverpool loanee Leighton Clarkson has added another eyecatching moment to his growing portfolio on loan at Aberdeen as boss Barry Robson hailed the midfielder. He made it five league goals for the season, scoring for the first time since the Scottish Premiership split, in the Dons' comfortable 3-0 win over St Mirren. The 21-year-old put the hosts in front inside 15 minutes with an expertly crafted free-kick leaving opposition goalkeeper Trevor Carson no chance.
At the beginning of the campaign, he opened his account for the Scottish side against Wednesday's opponents before doubling his account with an exquisite match-winning free-kick against St Johnstone.
Ever since, he has continued to score spectacular goals from midfield including a volley against Rangers and former Liverpool academy coach Michael Beale in December.
Graeme Shinnie grabbed a brace either side of the interval to send Aberdeen four points clear in third.
The win for Aberdeen ensured European football would return to Pittodrie as they guaranteed a top-three finish.
