ABERDEEN fans were given a heart-in-your-mouth moment when their keeper bizarrely decided to make a clearance with a rabona.
must have been pretty bored by the Scottish League Cup match against Dundee, which was goalless heading into the 38th minute.

Just ask Aberdeen's Marius Müller who produced this audacious rabona against Dundee 👀 #PremierSportsCup pic.twitter.com/OK3mtGnDvs
So when his team-mate rolled the ball back to him in his own six-yard box, he decided to mix things up by completely unnecessarily making a rabona clearance.
He caught the ball pure and it flew all the way to the edge of the centre circle where his team-mate successfully got the first touch.
He was quickly dispossessed and a brief scrap over possession ended with the ball rolling again to Muller just seconds after his initial clearance.
But any fan fears were alleviated when he elected this time to flick the ball into his hands rather than try some other bizarre skill.
Aberdeen supporters were both enchanted and concerned by the mad moment.
One wrote: “Am I a few too many drinks in or has Muller done a 30 yard rabona?”
Another joked: “Love it, fantastic. Now don’t do that again.”
And a third added: “My head would be on mars seeing this if I was his manager.”

Indeed manager Stephen Robinson could only shake his head in disbelief when asked about the strange decision after the match, which Aberdeen went on to win 3-0.
Muller is already being talked about as a future cult figure with the Scottish outfit, despite only arriving last month – the rabona occurred in his sixth game for the club.
That status is probably helped by his unique look, sporting a face mask after suffering a number of head injuries during his career.
The bearded German, 33, was signed from and spent the majority of his career to this point in his home nation.
