Airdrie 0 Dundee 0, Excelsior Stadium, 16/August/08

Airdrie goalkeeper Stephen Robertson earned his side a valuable draw against Dundee with a string of vital saves. Colin McMenamin, twice, and Mickael Antoine-Curier were both denied by Robertson as Dundee piled on early pressure against the hosts. Scott McLaughlin replaced the struggling David Nixon after 24 minutes and solidified the Airdrie backline. But Antoine-Curier came close to opening the scoring again with a low effort that Robertson turned away.
Dundee: Douglas, Paton, Malone, McHale, MacKenzie, Williams, Daquin (Davidson 83), Pozniak, McMenamin, Antoine-Curier, Gilhaney (O'Brien 70). Subs Not Used: Roy, Deasley, McKeown.
In a game which Dundee lacked the killer touch, maybe cause the Airdrie keeper played well, but St.Johnstone got beat 3-0 at home to Dunfermline. Let's hope Partick get beat tomorrow..
