Dundee and drama go hand in hand. Wednesday night’s clash with Ross County, though, took that strange marriage to a whole new level. Edging towards safety after a not-so-perfect performance that just about deserved all three points, suddenly the ball flicks Antonio Portales on the hand and all hell breaks loose across Scottish football.

The decision to penalise Dundee’s Antonio Portales for handball has been branded an “absolute disgrace” after the last-gasp spot-kick allowed Ross County to snatch a crucial point at Dens Park. The controversial end to the clash prevented the Dark Blues from securing their safety in the Premiership and also condemned St Johnstone to relegation. Dundee would have been five points clear of the Staggies with one match remaining thanks to Scott Tiffoney’s goal on 55 minutes.

Furious Tony Docherty was too angry to do post-match press duties after Ross County’s 96th-minute penalty denied his Dundee side a crucial victory. Scott Tiffoney’s goal on 55 minutes looked to have earned the Dark Blues a win that would have guaranteed Premiership survival. However, referee Nick Walsh pointed to the spot on 93 minutes after Ryan Astley’s header flicked the outstretched arm of Antonio Portales in the area.

Ziyad Larkeche admits Kilmarnock will be a new experience for him as the Dundee star gears up for his first professional match on Astroturf. He’s hoping the clash at Rugby Park doesn’t, though, end with another first for him. The French defender is yet to face Killie and not score against them. Twice he has taken on the Derek McInnes outfit and twice the left-back has found the net.
