Dundee 0,Celtic 1, Dens Park, Ladbrokes Premiership, 17-March-19

Dundee played well on Sunday not always on the attack but they defended well and kept their shape well. They had chances in either half when a wee bit of composure might have seen them take the lead. For Champions Celtic I thought they were pretty poor overall.


They did win the game in the sixth minute of injury time with nearly the last kick of the ball. In my mind the six minutes were too long and only the Referee knows why. 

It has cost Dundee a point and maybe more come the end of the season. Next game is a visit to St Mirren a week on Saturday which will prove vital in our fight to stay in the league.

Dundee: Dieng, Ralph, Woods(C), Kusunga, O'Dea, O'Sullivan(J.Curran72) Wright(Dales90+4), R McGowan, Robson,Miller (C.Curran 71), Horsfield. Unused Subs: Parish, Kerr, Hadenius, Moore.

Dundee lost 1-0 to Hearts in a game where going by reports and high lights I have seen they should have taken at least a point. The goal they lost could have been cleared, but that is football some times. Late on Kenny Miller went so close to level the game with a header.

Dundee 2, Hibernian 4, Dens Park, Ladbrokes Premiership, 22-February-19

Dundee lost 4-2 to Hibernian at home on the Friday night, Hibs took the lead on 26 minutes when Kamberi scored. McGowan levelled things with a well taken goal. But McNulty put the Edinburgh side ahead before half-time. Two early goals sealed the game for the visitors. Martin Woods pulled one back with 11 minutes to go. Sub Kenny Miller had 2 goals knocked off for off-side in between Woods goal. At least they kept at it, but at the end of the day it was another defeat.
