Jonny Hayes earned Aberdeen a 1-1 draw against Maribor in the first leg of their Europa League qualifier at Pittodrie on Thursday night.
Derek McInnes' men missed a number of chances before the Slovenian side took the lead through Milivoje Novakovic with seven minutes left.
Adam Rooney set up Hayes for the late leveller to leave the tie very much in the balance for next Thursday's second leg, kick-off 7.15pm.
