Dundee 5 Morton 1, Dens Park, Scottish Cup, 3rd February-2012
Dundee swept past Morton with a stunning 5-1 win over the current First Division leaders. Jim McAlister put Dundee ahead on 29 minutes with a fine finish, Morton levelled just 2 minutes later when Tidser forced the ball home past Douglas in the six yard box.
One each at half time and many could not see the second half goal feast from the home side. Goals from Toshney(64) Header, Nish (70) Header, Baird (73) Shot, and Gallagher(81) Header sealed the game, and gave the Dundee fans a welcome boost from what has been a difficult season result wise in the league.
It was also pleasing the the goals were scored by five different players and it must give them a boost.
I missed the game due to work but even l was shocked at the scoreline to say the least.
Next up is Ross County at Dens on Friday night a must win for Dundee l would think.
Dundee: Douglas, Irvine, Toshney, Gallagher, Easton, Riley, McBride (Conroy 85),
