April Round-Up

Dens Park, Ladbrokes Premiership, 02-April-16

Dundee beat Ross County 5-2 in which was a fine performance from the Dark Blues, early goals from Stewart and Hemmings put Dundee in control. The Staggies pulled a goal back soon after and had a wee spell of pressure. But Loy scored Dundee's third on 37 minutes. Just before half-time County scored again to make the half-time score 3-2.

Second half and Dundee had early chances but could not add to the score, but with 20 minutes to go Wighton replaced Loy, and soon after the young striker put Dundee 4-2 up to seal the three points for the home side. In the final minute Stewart scored a wonderful solo goal to send the Dundee fans home happy.
