Dundee is gearing up to take on Kilmarnock this Sunday after a tough result at Parkhead earlier in the week. Boss Tony Docherty is hoping for improvements to the VAR system in Scotland after a controversial decision went against his team at Celtic.
Footage provided by Dundee to the SFA’s Key Incident Match Review panel highlighted a missed foul on Mo Sylla by Arne Engels in the lead up to Celtic’s penalty. Despite VAR checking the penalty decision, play continued without pulling back for a foul to Dundee.
Ahead of the Kilmarnock clash, Docherty expressed confidence that the situation would be reviewed and the right decision made. He emphasized the impact the missed call had on the game but refrained from dwelling on it too much.
Despite recent losses, the Dark Blues received a boost with the return of two experienced players, Jordan McGhee and Scott Tiffoney. However, Scott Fraser’s availability remains uncertain due to a groin issue, while Trevor Carson continues to be monitored for a knee flare-up. Docherty remains hopeful for their potential return.
The upcoming match against Kilmarnock is crucial for Dundee as they look to improve their form before facing Aberdeen in a tough away fixture. Docherty and his team are focused on making the necessary improvements and moving forward positively.
