The visitors perhaps should also have scored, but this hasn't been the rampant Motherwell we have become accustomed to in recent months. That in a large is down to the organisation their hosts have shown in the opening 45 minutes. Dundee 1-0 Motherwell Motherwell go into the break with the rare feeling of being behind. Tony Yogane's scrappy back-post finish has Dundee ahead. Dundee 1-0 Motherwell An excellent Stephen O'Donnell cross takes a bounce in the Dundee six-yard box, but nobody in claret and amber is there.

Dundee 1-0 Motherwell Stephen Craigan Former Motherwell captain on BBC Sportsound It's such a poor goal for Motherwell to give away. Stephen O'Donnell has no clue Tony Yogane is behind him. Against the run of play, Motherwell should have had the lead a couple of minutes ago. Tony Yogane Drey Wright's ball to the back post is met by the boot of Tony Yogane and Dundee have the lead. It's a weird looking finish, with Calum Ward almost jumping over the top of the ball as it rolls into the far corner. Dundee 0-0 Motherwell A sensational save from Jon Mc Cracken prevents Lukas Fadinger scoring with a deflected attempt. The midfielder then sends an easier chance past the near post. What a save from the Dundee keeper, though. Dundee 0-0 Motherwell Callum Slattery tries an ambitious one that goes way over. This is the most Motherwell have struggled to create in recent weeks.

They play great football but also take chances at the back, chances barely any other teams are able to capitalise on. Dundee 0-0 Motherwell Motherwell put together about 80 passes then a looping ball to the back post is met by Stephen O'Donnell, but the right-back's cutback to Callum Slattery is cut out.
