Firstly might I.i apoligise to those of you who have been waiting for my report. This is down to the fact that my son decided to play football with my monitor.
Dundee started with:-
1.SPERONI
2.SMITH
3.WILKIE
4.DEL RIO
5.BEGHETTO
6.ARTERO
7.TORRES
8.RAE
9.KETSBAIA
10.CABALLERO
11.SARA
subs:- Langfield, Robertson (for artero), Garrido (for traverso), Traverso (for Caballero), Mackay
Dundee started this game exceptionally well and scored in six minutes. Ketsbia took a wonderfull pass and ran to the Motherwell box before unleashing a TEMURI wonder strike which Woods got his hand to but couldnt prevent from finding the net.
Then in 25mins he repeated it all again by making a lovely tackle and going on a mazy run and shooting low into the corner of the net which left Woods in no mans land.

Two minutes later Motherwell thought their prayers were answered when they were awarded a soft penalty which should never have been given as no contact was made.
Speroni seemed to know exactly where Mcfadden was going to strike the ball as he saved easily.
Dundee should have been three up by half time but Caballero squandered a great chance after Artero's great work down the line.
summing up first half:-
Wow, entertaing stuff again but you always worry about the way we play when we take the lead in a game. Lets just hope we pull through today.
Artero was replaced with Robertson and Caballero with debutant Traverso.
Motherwell started well but never really tested Speroni. Dundee weren't the same team as in the first half which was what I feared would happen and had we been playing better opposition I fear we may have lost again. But Ketsbaia just kept on running and wouldnt give in and almost added a third after a lovely mazy dribble but his shot finished just wide.
Lets hope we can hang on to the Georgian genius as I'd love to see him play alongside Georgi.
Traverso came close with a shot that went across the face of the goal. Then for the second time in two weeks we saw a sub on for a sub when Traverso was replaced with Garrido.
Summing up:- Excellent three points, pity we couldnt have gotten them earlier in the season because our top six place fell away when Hearts beat Hibs.
M.O.M. Ketbaia i doubt you will see a better performance.
