Dundee starting eleven had only two changes, with Christie Elliott and Leigh Griffiths replacing Ryan Sweeney and Jordan Marshall. However, four of the players who started against Hibs had to move to different positions. Cammy Kerr switched from right to left back. Jordan McGhee dropped back into central defence. Dundee had only five players on the bench.
Hearts started well and attacked from kick off, for the good of Dundee their defence done really well to cope. Hearts did have a shot but it was well over the bar. As the first half was coming up Luke McCowan done well to get the shot in which the Hearts keeper had to save.
Second half and Hearts again took the game to Dundee but again they done well to defend. Dundee again attacked on the break but they did look a bit slower as the game went on. Dundee keeper Adam Legzdins had only a couple of crosses to deal with.
But on 75 minutes Hearts scored with a bit luck, the shot from McEneff was weak and straight at Legzdins but Liam Fontaine stuck out a foot, diverting the ball onto the post. The rebound flew across goal for Walker to shoot high into the net at the far post.
Dundee brought on Alex Jakubiak in the place of Luke McCowan as they tried to hit back. They did try and had a couple of efforts which were just wide of the goals. The fog did come down quickly which did not help both teams as the game came to a close.
It was Cammy Kerr's 200th game for the club, so well done Cammy
Plenty effort from the Dundee players and all got pass marks from the Dundee fans. The club now need results in the next two games against Aberdeen and Livingston in the next week and a half.
