'Two points squandered again'published at 13:05 3 December 2023
We asked for your thoughts after Connor Wilkinson's 97th-minute goal denied Dundee all three points at Fir Park.
Here's what you had to say:
Albert: Typical of our club. Ach well, bring on Rangers.
Doug: A game that should have been remembered as an excellent away victory achieved through sustained classy play will instead be remembered for the sloppy last ten seconds. Two points squandered (again).
Cameron disappointed with draw but says Dundee are 'holding own now'published at 11:32 3 December 2023
BBC Sport Scotland's Martin Dowden at Fir Park
Lyall Cameron put in a player of the match performance against Motherwell, but admits there was disappointment at not being able to hold on for all three points.
More like a defeat than a point?
Yeah, definitely. I think we dominated the game and then obviously they went down to ten men. We score a late goal to make it 3-2 and you think the game is won. 90 seconds left, they’ve got a goal kick and you don’t think there’s any threat. Next thing they’re up the other end and score and make it three-all.
Measure of your progress that you’re disappointed at a draw here?
Yeah, I think from the start of the season when we played them we’ve improved a lot. Today we certainly feel like we should have won that game with the amount of chances we created and the play that we had.
Response to going behind encouraging?
Yeah, we showed great character because we started really poor and then obviously we went and got ourselves 2-1 up and let them get back in it. Even the last goal to make it 3-2 it shows character again we just didn’t stop. Well, we did stop at the very end unfortunately.
Overall picture?
We know we’re holding our own now and feel like we can push on to the next level and that’s what we were trying to do today, come away to a hard place, get three points and get up the road. But I feel like on another day we would have. With that performance we probably should have but unfortunately we didn't.

Motherwell 3-3 Dundee: What the manager saidpublished at 17:46 2 December 2023
Dundee manager Tony Docherty: "Hugely disappointed to lose a game in which we were so dominant and the level of performance was so high.
"I thought we were outstanding and I should be talking about how good my team were. But we don't manage the last 90 seconds of the game properly and we end up dropping two points.
"We were in a similar position away to St Johnstone, so as well as we're doing that's four points we've dropped.
"But I can't be too harsh on my players because I thought the level of performance was outstanding and we really didn't get what we deserved.
"This league is punishing and it's unforgiving and you need to make sure you see out games and get your reward for what you put in to the game."
Motherwell 3-3 Dundee: Analysispublished at 17:44 2 December 2023

Dundee will be frustrated they did not hold on for a win having scored a brilliant goal late on through Robinson and having played some neat football. Cameron was outstanding in the middle of the pitch alongside McCowan and Malachi Boateng.
Beck is having a wonderful season on loan from Liverpool and was excellent again. It's still just one defeat in nine for Dundee so there is plenty to be pleased about for Docherty and the club's fans.

'Now we feel we belong in this league' - Shaughnessypublished at 13:02 1 December 2023
Despite narrow defeat to Hibs last time out, Joe Shaughnessy says Dundee are showing they can get results in a competitive Scottish Premiership.
The Dark Blues slipped to fifth after that loss, but are still just three points from the top four after a strong start to their top-flight return.
"It's probably surprised people from outside the club but we’ve got a good set of players and we know we have the ability to get results," the Dundee captain said.
"Hopefully now we feel like we belong in this league and we can get results against all the teams.
"We just want to keep picking up results, trying to keep putting points on the board, we're not even half-way through the season and we’ve got a tough run of games coming up.
"We've got three games in a row away from home, so it’s important to get a positive result this weekend."
Motherwell v Dundee: Pick of the statspublished at 14:47 30 November 2023
Motherwell are unbeaten in six top-flight home games against Dundee (W4 D2) since a 3-2 loss in April 2017.
Dundee are unbeaten in three Scottish Premiership meetings with Motherwell (W1 D2), having lost seven in a row prior to this.
After going unbeaten in their first four league matches of the season (W3 D1), Motherwell have since failed to win any of their last 10 (D3 L7), which is the longest current winless run in the division.
Dundee put an end to their 10-match winless run on the road in the top-flight last time out with a 2-0 win at Livingston. They are looking to win consecutive away matches in the Premiership for the first time since January 2018.
No side has conceded more goals in the Scottish Premiership than Motherwell this season (22), while only Ross County (208) have faced more shots (205).
