Aberdeen faces disciplinary action after fan pitch invasion
Summary

Aberdeen could face disciplinary action following a pitch invasion by some supporters at Rugby Park after their Premier Sports Cup win over Kilmarnock on Saturday. The match went to penalties after a 1-1 draw in regular play and extra time, with Jack Milne scoring the decisive penalty in a 3-1 shootout. The Scottish Professional Football League will investigate the incident as well as the use of pyrotechnics by fans. The Dons will compete against Rangers in the semi-finals next month at Hampden Park, where tighter regulations on fan conduct are anticipated following previous issues during quarter-final matches.
