Events
Match Events
- 0' We are underway at Kilmac Stadium at Dens Park. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' Dundee FC are deployed in a 3-5-2 today, looking to exploit space against Kilmarnock FC's 3-4-2-1 shape.
- 10' Dundee FC is showing some good football. However, Dundee FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 15' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Robby McCrorie suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' Scott Tiffoney has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 24' Magnificent from Ziyad Larkeche! That is 2 goals in 390 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 29' Juan Portales has been relatively quiet despite scoring 3 goals in his last 188 appearances.
- 30' That looks like a foul for a card for Mo Sylla.
- 35' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 38' It’s a booking for Dundee FC player. Simon Murray gets a card.
- 43' The referee has no hesitation. Mo Sylla is booked for Dundee FC — card on 43.
- 46' The crowd applauds Curtis Main as he leaves the pitch. Scott Fraser steps in for Dundee FC.
- 51' Kilmarnock FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 56' Over 56 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 60' Lewis Mayo was booked on 60.
- 63' Kilmarnock FC make a change. Liam Donnelly trudges off to be replaced by Bruce Anderson on 63 minutes.
- 66' Seb Palmer-Houlden is ready to make an impact after coming on for Simon Murray at the 66 minute mark.
- 67' Time for substitution for Dundee FC. Scott Tiffoney is replaced by Oluwaseun Adewumi.
- 72' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 76' The Kilmarnock FC bench stirs into life. Lewis Mayo is withdrawn and Jack Burroughs gets his opportunity.
- 81' Oluwaseun Adewumi makes no mistake. The score reads 2-0 and Dundee FC are in front.
- 86' A goal from the Northern Ireland international Matty Kennedy! He fires home on 86 to make it 2-1!
- 87' Fresh legs for Kilmarnock FC! Bobby Wales comes on to replace Kyle Vassell.
- 88' What a moment for Bruce Anderson! That strike on 88 puts his side firmly in control.
- 89' The Dundee FC manager makes a substitution. Ethan Ingram departs to be replaced by Ryan Astley.
- What a match! Full time at {STADIUM} — Dundee FC 2-3 Kilmarnock FC.
