Aberdeen vs Dundee: Scottish Premiership – BBC Sport

Aberdeen suffered their first set-back of the season at Hampden as their unbeaten start came to a shuddering halt.

Despite their lofty position in the table, they still have frailties in defence which Celtic had exposed. And Dundee were keen to test their resolve after that chastening defeat.

However, with the Dons fans packing out Pittodrie for the fourth time in a row, a trip to the Granite City is much tougher these days. Eleven teams have now gone back down the A90 this season with nothing.

Aberdeen needed a Mitov penalty save – his second of the season – to keep them level after a first half where Aberdeen had been second best.

Gavin Molloy, who had been at fault when conceding a penalty at Dens Park earlier this season, was the fall guy again when he hauled down Murray in the box. This time his goalkeeper bailed him out.

However, the Dons have a knack of finding another gear after half-time, and they could have won by more with Duk heading off the bar among a string of chances.
