John Baird Scores Dundee's Goal

Dundee drew 1-1 with Inverness Caley Thistle in a close encounter at Dens Park. The home side took the lead with a well worked goal, good play from Harkins and Conroy and John Baird finished with a neat shot from 18 yards or so. Soon after Nicky Riley fired just over the bar as Dundee created a few chances. But it was ICT who nearly scored when Irvine cleared under pressure and some the ball came off the bar to safety. Soon after Andrew Shinnie hit the bar from about 20 yards out.

Second half and Davidson so nearly scored with a header but Esson managed to save and knock the ball over the bar. Dundee then had a good spell of pressure but just lacked the composure to finish off their moves. But as the game came to a close Caley Thistle scored to level things when a deep cross was headed home by small striker Billy McKay. Both teams went for a winner, but a draw was about right.

Dundee: Douglas, Irvine, Grassi, Toshney, Easton, Riley, Davidson, McAlister, Conroy, Harkins,  (Finnigan 85), Baird. Unused subs; Alex Baird (gk), Benedictus, Gallagher, McBride, Stewart.
