Saturday 7th December 2019
A FLAT performance by Dumbarton, and an energetic and incisive one by Montrose, resulted in a 2-0 defeat for Sons this afternoon.
Weather conditions were to say the least challenging, but the visitors adapted better and took the lead through an Andrew Steeves header 10 minutes from half time.
With the wind advantage in the second half Sons hoped for better but struggled against a solid and organised Montrose defence.
And an unfortunate own goal by Ryan McGeever sealed it for the visitors with 14 minutes left.
Sons now go away to Forfar Athletic next week in the first of an away double header covering the last two Saturdays before Christmas.
Report, pictures and reaction to follow.
