Motherwell fans, we asked for your opinions on the 2-1 loss to Dundee at Dens Park. Dman: Another disappointing afternoon, the first goal is an extremely soft penalty on Emmanuel Longelo for handball, when his hand is by his side and there's nowhere else to go there. The second goal is criminal from Alex Paulsen, but he also made a couple of great saves later in the game.
