Inverness CT 1 Dundee 1, Tulloch Caledonian Stadium, First Division, 26/Dec/09

Dundee ended the year with a well deserved 1-1 draw, in a first half performance in which was likely our best of the season so far. They created so many chances and really should have had it wrapped up at half time. But only had a Leigh Griffths penalty right on half time to show for their efforts. The penalty was given after a reckless challenge from Djebi-Zadi, Leigh got up and blasted the ball home to give Dundee a half time lead. To their credit Inverness CT came into the game and had various chances, and hit the bar from a free kick. Strangely given when Dundee keeper Rab Douglas got booked for marking the pitch, yes a booking but not a free kick. Caley Thistle squared the game after a very slack pass back from Kerr put Adam Rooney through and he made no mistake. Dundee did have a few chances as well, and looked very dangerous on the break. Near the end Gary Harkins got send off for a second bookable offence, it looked a bit soft to me. A good point in the end and keeps our unbeaten run going.
Dundee: Douglas, Paton, Malone, Kerr, MacKenzie, Lauchlan, Forsyth (Klimpl 83), Hart, Griffiths, McMenamin (Clarke 87), Harkins. Subs Not Used: Benedictis, Cameron, Soutar.
