Ross County FC 1:1 FC Dundee — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Finlay Robertson scored once in normal time and converted in the shootout as Dundee FC edged Ross County 8-7 on penalties after a 1-1 draw in the League Cup, setting up a meeting with Airdrieonians next. The midfielder’s 20th-minute opener gave the visitors a first-half lead, but Ross County, backed by home support, pushed hard after the break.

The turning point came when Brian Graham equalised for Ross County in the 54th minute, steering home from Lewis Strapp’s cross after a period of sustained pressure. The match grew scrappy with a flurry of yellow cards — Idris Odutayo, Brian Graham, Ryan Astley, Dylan Smith, Akil Wright and Lewis Strapp all booked — but neither side could find a winner in normal time, forcing a penalty shootout that Dundee FC won 7-6.

Possession was dead even at 50% each, but Ross County dominated the corner count 7-3, reflecting their territorial control in the second half. Finlay Robertson, however, was the standout performer — the Dundee midfielder earned a 9.14 rating, scored his side’s only goal, and held his nerve from the spot. CheckLive’s model rated Ross County the stronger side and the result confirmed that prediction, though the live signals had backed Dundee FC and lost. Ross County now travel to face Airdrieonians on 25 July.
