Kilmarnock levelled against the run of play when Broadfoot got forward and his cross was swept home by McAleny for a simple goal. But Dundee came back quickly and went ahead with another superb goal from Andrew Nelson when the young striker fired a 20 yarder shot home.
Dundee continued to play fine football and finished the first half well on top.
Second half and Kilmarnock changed their shape a pushed Dundee back, it was no surprize when Burke fired home a great free kick to level the score at 2-2. It was Killie who were on top now and Dundee had to battle well to stay in the game.
But in injury time they got a big break, they broke clear quickly and Kenny Miller was clear , he was fouled by the keeper and a penalty was given. Up stepped Kenny Miller but his kick was saved by the Killie keeper to deny Dundee a vital win.
