Match ends, Kilmarnock 0, Aberdeen 4.

Aberdeen moved to within a point of Celtic at the top of the Scottish Premiership with a comprehensive victory over a poor Kilmarnock.
Niall McGinn scored early with a close-range header from Kenny McLean's cross, before Adam Rooney notched his 50th Dons goal with a header of his own.
Johnny Hayes made it 3-0 right after the restart, and Shay Logan rolled home goal number four.
Kilmarnock offered little and have now gone seven matches without a win.
This was a 57th league win for Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes in his 100th league match in charge.
Kilmarnock remain second bottom of the table and look destined for a grim fight against relegation.
Aberdeen were first to threaten. A back heel effort from Ash Taylor was well blocked by Kilmarnock goalkeeper Jamie MacDonald.
The home side immediately counter attacked resulting in an Aaron Splaine cross for Josh Magennis, but his header flew just wide of the post.

Aberdeen had the swirling wind at their backs and it possibly helped play a part in the opening goal. McLean curled a ball into the box which found the head of McGinn who made no mistake from close-range.
The Aberdeen dominance continued as McLean almost made it 2-0, but his shot hit the bar from Graeme Shinnie's cross.
Rooney would soon make it 2-0 with a firm header from a McGinn cross and reach the half century of goals for the club.
Within 20 seconds of the restart it was 3-0. McLean again the supplier, and this time Hayes was the scorer firing home from six yards.
Kilmarnock continued to offer little in the final third as Aberdeen took their foot off the gas, though there was still enough in the tank for a sublime fourth goal.
Peter Pawlett guided a back heel into the path of Logan who calmly placed his shot into the corner of the net.
Tope Obadeyi fired over the bar but this was another morale sapping day for the home fans, while Aberdeen have reignited the title race.
