Both teams started slowly and it took a while for the first chances to fall, a shot from McGowan which did not trouble the United keeper. Dundee forced a few corners but they came to nothing, but took in the lead after 34 minutes when a long ball into the box fell nicely to Kane Hemmings and the Dundee striker kept his cool to score to send the Dundee fans wild with delight.
Dundee lost their second defender when Konrad had to leave the field with a head knock, he had earlier came on for Kosta Gadzhalov who injured a shoulder.
Dundee did make it 2-0 when a pass from McGowan send Stewart clear out wide and his cross was swept home by Hemmings to score his second goal of the game right on half time.
United came back into the came when a long ball caught out the Dundee rear guard and Scott Bain dived at the feet of McKay, the Referee send Bain off and McKay scored from the spot. After this Dundee changed to a 5-4-1 system, with striker Hemming upfront alone. Dave Mitchell came on and Nicky Low was the man to go off. United pushed forward and it took some good defending and Keeper Mitchell done well with a couple of great saves and took his crosses cleanly, but in the 92nd minute United scored to grab a point.
It was tough on the Dundee players who gave it all they had with McGowan and Kerr were outstanding. Good support from the Dundee fans today as well.
