Kevin Nisbet: Could Aberdeen’s revived striker earn Scotland recall?

When the former Hibs striker arrived on loan at Pittodrie at the start of this season, looking to find the form that tempted Millwall to spend a reported £2m on him, it looked like a solid investment.

Nisbet scored a late winner against Ross County, before netting against Dundee two games later. It seemed the replacement for Bojan Miovski had been found.

However, there were only another five starts before the new year and just a single goal in that time. He might have hit the ground running, but that start soon stalled.

But Nisbet has been at the forefront of Aberdeen turning their fortunes around again, scoring five goals in his last six and looking more dangerous in the box.

His latest goal was one of his best in this hot run, putting Aberdeen ahead with an audacious backheel flick direct from a corner.

“The real Kevin Nisbet has turned up,” said former Pittodrie captain and manager ******* Miller on Sportsound. “That is just magnificent.

“He’s on the run, he’s beyond the near post and guides it into the top corner. That is a wonderful, wonderful goal.”

Fellow BBC pundit Stephen McGinn agreed: “That is Nisbet at his confident best. A natural goalscorer, feeling good about his game, feeling as fit as he ever has done at Aberdeen.”
