Dundee FC 4:0 Clyde FC — Match Report

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Dundee FC strolled past Clyde FC 4-0 in the League Cup, with defender Ryan Astley's composed display earning him a 7.55 rating, though no next fixture is set. The hosts were utterly dominant from the first whistle, but had nothing to show for it at the break.

The deadlock was broken five minutes into the second half when Alan Forrest swept home from close range, before Simon Murray doubled the lead on 70 minutes with a crisp finish. Joe Westley then took centre stage, netting twice in nine minutes — a predatory strike on 75 and a clinical finish on 84 — to complete the rout as Clyde offered no reply.

Possession was dead even at 50% each, but Dundee's six corners to Clyde's five hinted at their territorial edge, and the second half told the story: four unanswered goals. Ryan Astley, the standout defender, earned a 7.55 rating without contributing on the scoresheet, his positioning and reading of the game underpinning the clean sheet. CheckLive's model clearly favoured Dundee and the result confirmed it, with the side controlling both halves as predicted. No next fixture is scheduled.
