Kilmarnock secures crucial point in relegation battle after dramatic late penalty save

Kilmarnock goalkeeper Kelle Roos made a crucial stoppage-time penalty save to earn his side a vital point in their fight against relegation. The match ended in a 2-2 draw after a dramatic finale. Dundee's Joe Westley had the chance to win the game from the spot, but Roos guessed correctly to deny him. The point keeps Kilmarnock in the relegation play-off spot, just two points behind St Mirren. The home side started brightly and took the lead through Joe Hugill's volley. Dundee equalized against the run of play when Simon Murray headed in, and the visitors thought they had taken the lead when Murray scored again, only for VAR to rule it out for offside. Kilmarnock regained the lead through Michael Schjonning-Larsen's superb strike, but Dundee leveled again when Scott Wright finished past Roos. The visitors were awarded a late penalty after Jamie Brandon conceded a spot-kick, but Roos saved Westley's effort to secure a point for Kilmarnock. Dundee manager Steven Pressley criticized the lack of investment in VAR technology, saying it puts officials in a difficult situation. Kilmarnock boss Neil McCann felt his side should have won the game but was confident in his team's ability to climb the table.
