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

Kilmarnock goalkeeper Kelle Roos made a pivotal stoppage-time penalty save to secure a vital point for his team in their fight against relegation, as they drew 2-2 with Dundee. The match ended in dramatic fashion, with a penalty being awarded to Dundee in the dying minutes, only for Roos to guess correctly and deny Joe Westley. The draw keeps Kilmarnock in the relegation play-off spot, but they are now just two points behind St Mirren. The home side had started brightly, taking the lead in the 14th minute through Joe Hugill. However, Dundee equalized against the run of play in the 24th minute, with Simon Murray scoring from a Tony Yogane cross. Kilmarnock regained the lead through Michael Schjonning-Larsen's superb strike, but Dundee leveled the score in the second half through Scott Wright. The visitors had the chance to snatch all three points in the final minutes, but Roos' penalty save ensured Kilmarnock earned a crucial point. The result leaves Kilmarnock still in the relegation play-off spot, but they are now just two points behind St Mirren. Dundee manager Steven Pressley expressed his frustration with the technology used in the game, stating that it is not fit for purpose and puts undue pressure on the officials. Kilmarnock boss Neil McCann felt that his team should have won the game, but was confident that they would get to where they want to be in the table if they continue to play their best.
