Dundee started with the same team that won at Raith on Tuesday night. No place in the squad for Neil McCann. Dundee started brightly and forced Morton back the first real chance fell to Higgins but his shot was high and wide of the target. Morton looked dangerous on the break and Rab Douglas had to look sharp to make a good diving save. The goal did come on 25 mins when a good one-two from Gary Harkins fell nicely to Sean Higgins and the inform striker finished with a low drive to give the Dark Blues the lead. Dundee pushed for a second and Nicky Riley done well to get a shot in which the ton keeper saved well, but the ball would not fall right for the winger. Both teams attacked but no more scoring in a even kind of half.
Second half and again Dundee push forward with Forsyth shooting wide from a good position, back came Morton and exdee Derek Lyle forced Douglas into a good save. Morton were coming into the game now and they did level matters when after some slack defensive play lead to a corner it was headed clear only to be played back in to fall kindly to Jenkin's who shot home pass the helpless Douglas from six yards.
That was that it ended 1-1 each, a draw was fair Dundee looked a bit tired and flat today. But they have kept their unbeaten run going and we Dundee fans are happy with the efforts they have put in.
