- 25' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Tony Docherty will be considering his options from the bench.

- 34' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 34 minutes.
- 39' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 1 times this season with Dundee FC winning 100% of all matches.
