Dundee recorded a 3-0 victory in Poland this evening as they took on FC Baník Ostrava from Czechia in a pre-season friendly.
The Dee started brightly with Seb Palmer-Houlden going through on goal, but his shot went wide of the post. Cameron and Mulligan linked well together forcing two corners.
Banik had their first chance after 10 minutes and had the ball in the back of the net, but the offside flag was up. They then pushed again shortly after but McCracken made a good save.
Tiffoney then played through Tiffoney, but he smashed the side net. Mulligan was involved again when he played in McCowan but his shot went inches past the post. Cameron and Palmer-Houlden had shot blocks.
The best chance of the half came right on half-time and it came from Banik, the ball was thrown into the box and their striker had a free header which he knocked past the post.
Eight minutes into the second half, Dundee opened the scoring through Luke Graham, the ball came out to McCowan who crossed the ball into the box and found Graham who headed the ball past the keeper.
Dundee continued to attack through Palmer-Houlden who had two chances. Substitute Jamie Richardson came close after Max Anderson drove forward. Richardson got his goal when he followed in off a shot and knocked the ball into the back of the net.
Three minutes later Dundee had a third through Fin Robertson who took the ball around the keeper and smashed it into the back of the net.
It was a strong performance for The Dee tonight in our second pre-season match against a good Banik Ostrava side.
