St.Johnstone 1 Dundee 1, McDiarmid Park, 18/August/07


Freddie Daquin's deflected equaliser got Dundee off the hook in a hard-fought derby draw at St Johnstone. Saints had taken the lead seconds after the restart when John Stewart latched onto a perfect cross from Paul Sheerin. But Martin Hardie's straight red card for an elbow on Kevin McDonald turned the tide in Dundee's favour. Daquin's speculative effort beat Alan Main from 25 yards but Dundee also ended the game with 10 men when Jan Zemlik was shown a second yellow card. A good point for Dundee, but we could have had all three points today. A great support for Dundee today , just under 3,000 travelled.
