St Johnstone almost take the lead! It's worked nicely to Matthew Foulds on the left, just outside the box, but the defender's placed effort goes agonisingly wide.

After celebrating that penalty, St Mirren are dealt a blow as Marcus Fraser goes down. He appears to be holding his groin.

They're already quite short on centre-backs, but Richard King is on the bench.

Well, shows what I know. They're bringing on Liam Donnelly, traditionally a central midfielder.

Jamie Gullan steps up. It's a long pause...

And it's saved! Jacob Chapman dives to his left and it's the right way, with the St Mirren goalkeeper palming away.

Gullan, who was Saints' star man last weekend, looks gutted.

A decent opening there for Aberdeen.

Lewis Smith is free on the right near the byline in the box to cut the ball back after a deep cross by Nesta Guinness-Walker, but there are no takers.

VAR are looking at a handball by Alex Gogic in the box.

The St Mirren defender trying to jostle with Sam Stanton from a throw in, his arm is certainly in the air.

Referee Ross Hardie is over to the screen... and he gives the penalty!

As the second half begins, a quick look at Opta statistics tells us St Johnstone failed to have a shot on target in that half.

For a side that were free-scoring last weekend, that is a surprise.

Aberdeen manager Stephen Robinson was clearly of the same mind as Willie Miller as the visitors do make changes at half-time at Dens Park.

Midfielder Afeez Aremu and Tony Yogane make way and on come fellow winger Lewis Smith and forward Ayoub Maloula.

We are getting under way around the country again, although they are still a couple of minutes behind in Paisley.

Talking of Tony Yogane.

The winger has not returned after the break.

More of that in a moment.

It's been as poor as I've seen Aberdeen play and I've seen them play poorly on a number of occasions.

This first 45 minutes has been drastic and Stephen Robinson, he's got to do something. He's got to change them either by inspiring them or by making changes to personnel. Even at this early stage, he should be considering personnel changes.

I remember watching Tony Yogane tear teams apart week in, week out in the colours of Dundee last season.

This afternoon, in those of Aberdeen, he has been non-existent.

The boos rung out from the large away support at Dens Park, who have watched their side get an absolute toweling.

Dundee have been utterly dominant - they should be three or four up at the break.

But they aren't, meaning Aberdeen incredibly are still in this game.

However, they will have to vastly improve to have any chance at all of taking anything from it.

Not much in this, but that Samuel Ramos chance was the main threat of an opener.

The urgency may come initially from St Mirren after the break as they'll be keen to take advantage of being at home with both seeking successive wins.

They've been more effective going forward with end product the missing element.

• Dumbarton 0-0 Clyde
• Elgin City 1-1 Forfar Athletic
• Kelty Hearts 2-0 Stirling Albion
• Stranraer 0-0 Annan Athletic
• The Spartans 0-1 Edinburgh City

• Airdrieonians 0-0 East Kilbride
• East Fife 0-0 Cove Rangers
• Hamilton Academical 1-0 Alloa Athletic
• Queen of the South 0-1 Peterhead
• Ross County 1-1 Montrose

• Arbroath 0-0 Inverness Caledonian Thistle
• Dunfermline Athletic 1-1 Ayr United
• Queen's Park 0-1 Raith Rovers
• Stenhousemuir 0-0 Greenock Morton

Goalless at the break in Paisley then.

Both sides came into this game on the back of a win and were arguably the two most eye-catching teams in the opening weekend.

And, while their industry has been commendable, their accuracy has let them down.

Joe Westley's goal separates the sides at the break at Dens Park, but Dundee should really have a bigger advantage after a dominant first half.

A lot for Aberdeen to do in the second period, but the saving grace for them is that it is only 1-0 the hosts.
