Dundee drew 1-1 at Dens on Saturday in what was a poor performance on what the club has shown so far this season, they were lucky not to be 3-0 at half time. The jags scored with a great strike from youngster Fraser. Just before that Thistle should have scored but some how Bannigan missed a sitter when he headed wide from inside the six yard box. Dundee did very little in the first half with only a MacDonald effort which went wide.
Second half and Craig Wighton came on to replace Tankulic and he played a bit part on getting the dark blues back into the game. A good run from McAlister into the box he slipped the ball to Craig Wighton and the youngster kept his cool and finished like a veteran to light up Dens Park. Five minutes later and Dundee had a great chance to go ahead McPake was fouled in the box and after a mini melee Thistle keeper Fox got a red card for a silly wee slap on McGowan. Up stepped Harkins but Gallagher saved the midfielder's poor spot kick. Near the end and MacDonald nearly won it but his header was well saved.
Dundee: Letheren, McGinn, McPake, Konrad, Dyer (Irvine) Ferry McAlister, McGowan, Harkins Boyle) MacDonald, Tankulic (Wighton) Subs Unused: Bain, Stewart, Davidson, Benedictus.

Inverness Caley Thistle 0, Dundee 0, Tulloch Caledonian Stadium, SPFL Premiership, 13-Aug-14
Dundee travelled up to the Highlands last week to record a 0-0 draw against Inverness Caley Thistle a very good result at a tough venue. Captain Kevin Thomson had to go off early on with a calf knock Jim McAlister replaced the midfielder. Dundee had chances and Peter McDonald should have scored late on. Paul Hartley will be happy enough with the point.
Dundee: Letheren, Dyer, Konrad, McPake, Thomson (C)(McAlister) Ferry, Stewart, (Boyle), McGowan, McGinn, Tankulic (MacDonald), Harkins. Subs: Bain, Irvine, Davidson, Wighton.
