Dundee Win at Tynecastle....

Hearts 0, Dundee 1, Tynecastle Stadium, Premier League, 02-September-12



Dundee started well at Tynecastle this afternoon and got their reward after only 3 minutes when Nish was fouled in the box. Up stepped Ryan Conroy to score Dundee's first SPL goal of the season. The Dark Blues have looked very dangerous and have hit Hearts on the break. McAlister shot over from 20 yards. Hearts have had chances in a end to end game and Rab Douglas has had a couple of good saves. then in 27 minutes gone penalty to Hearts when Paterson has been fouled. Up steps Sutton he shoots to the right and Rab Douglas brings off a superb save to the delight of the Dundee fans. Hearts keep the pressure up and Douglas makes a great save to his left to deny Carrick. The Dundee defence has done well with Grassi looking cool at the back. Up front Colin Nish has lead the line well and Davidson has been very good. Dundee reach half-time still 1-0 and look forward to the second half to hopefully add to their lead.

Into the second half and Hearts pinned Dundee back with Lockwood and Davidson  picking up yellow cards for fouls. Then Conroy clears one off the line when it looks a certain goal for Hearts. Manager Barry Smith then replaced Nish with Savo Milne after 73 minutes with Hearts still attacking the Dundee goal. Dundee have hit on the break when possible and the Hearts fans are getting frustrated. Dundee hold out to take the three points to take them off the bottom of the league.





Well done to the players for their efforts today shows you when they get written off  is when Dundee are dangerous.
