Dundee vs St Johnstone

Dens Park stayed goalless at the break as Dundee and St Johnstone cancelled each other out in a tight, cagey first half on Wednesday. Neither side could find the breakthrough before the interval, with both defences holding firm against limited clear-cut chances. The game needed a second-half spark, and it duly arrived once the teams came back out. Dundee eventually broke the deadlock, but St Johnstone responded well and got themselves back on level terms before the finish, the match finishing 1-1. It's a fair result on the balance of things, given how even the contest was throughout, and neither side will be too disappointed with a point. For Dundee it halts any momentum they might have been building at home, while St Johnstone will take the result on the road as a decent return given how the game had been shaping up before the goals came.

Dundee and St Johnstone drew 1-1 at Dens Park, in a game that could easily have finished either way. It was an even contest for large parts of the afternoon, with neither team able to take control of the game for long. Both sides had spells on top without ever pulling clear, and the shot count on the day backs up just how tight things were. A draw is rarely the result either team sets out to get, but on this occasion it was a fair reflection of ninety minutes where chances were shared roughly evenly. Below is a closer look at exactly how the numbers from the match broke down.
