Aberdeen boss Derek McInnes: 'We put in a poor afternoon's work'

Aberdeen boss Derek McInnes is critical of his team's "indulgent" performance during their 1-0 defeat to St Johnstone.

Aberdeen boss Derek McInnes has admitted that his side were poor during their 1-0 defeat to St Johnstone in the Scottish Premiership this afternoon.

The Dons manager described his side's play as "indulgent", conceding that they did not cause the opposition enough problems during the match.

"I thought we were quite indulgent in our play, knocking it around without causing them problems," BBC Sport quotes him as saying.

"St Johnstone are aggressive and very well organised but we had a couple of opportunities, so it's a poor afternoon's work for us."

The result leaves Aberdeen in ninth in the table, with three points from as many matches.
