Dundee manager Paul Hartley made several changes Thomson, Low and Irvine coming in for Holt, Etxabeguren, and the suspended Harkins. Dundee started the game well with some neat passing, but it was Caley who had the first chance when Mbuyi-Mutumbo headed wide. Then a wee bit later Scott Bain made a good diving save from a shot from long range. Dundee did have a lot of the ball but never forced a save from the Caley Th keeper.
Second half and Dundee started in more of a positive manner with McGowan unlucky with a long range effort, but it was the visitors who took the lead Mbuyi-Mutumbo broke into the box Konrad got a tackle in but the ball fell kindly for Raven who curled the ball home for a well taken goal, Dundee attacked more but seemed too slow and not direct enough to trouble the Caley Th defence. Christie could have finished the game but shot wide when in a good position. Meggatt came on for the injured Konrad. Dundee put Carreiro on for Gary Irvine to try and grab something from the game, with seven minutes to go Dundee were awarded a penalty when Divine handled a Stewart cross, it should have been a straight red as Hemming might have scored otherwise. Greg Stewart took the spot-kick but missed has his shot hit the keeper. A blow for Dundee but minutes later McGowan should have scored but somehow missed a open goal from 2 yards out.Mbuyi-Mutumbo was sent off for a bad tackle on Ross. But deep into injury time a long ball from McGinn fell nicely for Kane Hemmings to score to give the Dark Blues a share of the spoils.
Dundee deserved a point today, my thinking is they need a direct winger and a big centre forward just a out and out striker. They are too slow in the final third. Paul Hartley has until Tuesday night to get some players in.
