Dundee lost 2-0 to league leaders Celtic on Boxing Day maybe expected but we need to be attacking teams more, in the first half we sat too deep and the result was Celtic took control and lucky for us Celtic only scored once when it could have been 2 or 3. Dundee's only decent reply was a fine shot from returning Captain midfielder Stephen O'Donnell. The goal did come after 16 minutes from a superb overhead kick from Samaras.
Dundee played well enough in the second half but we need to push teams back from the kick-off, we do lack the players But with sheer effort we must do this if we are to remain in the league.
Dundee: Douglas, Irvine, Lockwood, Benedictus, Gallagher, McAlister, McBride, O'Donnell (Boyle 83), Conroy, J Baird (Stewart 73),Nish. Subs Not Used: A Baird, McGregor, Easton.
