A great start and it set the tone for the rest of the game, Dundee kept up the pressure and made it 2-0 just before half-time when Wighton played a great pass to sent Martin Boyle clear and the striker smashed the ball home to the delight of the home fans.


Second half and Dundee continued to play The Blue Brazil happy to try and keep the score down, so no big surprise when Jim McAlister scored the third goal after good wing play and cross from Nicky Riley. The fourth and final goal came soon after Wighton again played in Martin Boyle who fired in a unstoppable shot which had the Dens Park Fans shouting for more.
