Kilmarnock squander two goal lead in late defeat to Dundee

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Kilmarnock squandered a two-goal lead in a 3-2 away loss at Dundee this afternoon.Remarkably, it comes just four weeks after Killie themselves produced a similar fightback at the same venue but they were on the recevining end this time.The contest was a slow burner that burst into life midway through the first half when an explicable error from Dundee keeper Jon McCracken allowed Bruce Anderson to tap into an empty net to open the scoring.A David Watson cross was headed towards goal before looping high into the air.

Under no pressure, the stopper attempted to claim the ball only to fumble it into the path of Anderson.Killie were dealt a blow less than 10 minutes later when Stuart Findlay was stretchered off with an apparent ankle injury, replaced by Joe Wright.That didn't set them back, however, as they doubled their advantage five minutes before the break when Matty Kennedy rose the highest to nod a Danny Armstrong cross into the net.Just as the visitors looked to have taken control, though, Dundee were right back in it as barely a minute later Seb Palmer-Houlden replicated Kennedy's finish at the other end with a fine header beyond Robby McCrorie.The keeper could do nothing just after the restart as half-time substitute Jordan McGhee marked his return from injury in style with a headed equaliser in a congested box to draw things level before Josh Mulligan's run and pass led to Ziyad Larkeche scrambling the ball over the line deep into injury-time.Following a 15 minute delay to kick-off due to a medical incident involving Dundee substitute Julien Vetro, both sides started brightly and looked to get on the front foot.
