Cowdenbeath 1 Dundee 3, Central Park, Division One, 12-March-11

On a wet windy night in Fife Dundee made it 19 games undefeated to equal the club's record. They were made to fight for it and the third goal killed the game. First goal came form Sean Higgins who had a simple tap in, after good play from Forsyth. Second half and Dundee got a penalty on 46 minutes when Riley was bundled off the ball, it did look soft. But up stepped Matt Lockwood to sidefoot home with ease. Cowdenbeath did pull one back to make things tight, Dundee had chances as well three one on ones with the keeper but they missed the lot. But with 6minutes to go a great cross from Johnny Stewart was headed home by Craig Forsyth to seal the 3 points. Trialist Graham Bayne played the full 90 mins and done well.

So another three vital points for the club. Hope they can break the record on Saturday when Queen of the South visit Dens Park.
