But more sloppy play followed and they let Dumbarton back level with a very poor goal to lose. The ball was bouncing in the six yard box and somehow crossed the line for Wright to claim the goal, worse was to follow and another mix up in the Dundee defence and Buchanan scored after a effort was knocking onto the ball off the line by Kerr. That was it at half-time with the Dark Blues booed off.
Second half and Dundee started brightly and inside two minutes were level when Kane Hemming was played in by Loy's pass and he smashed the ball home. All of a sudden and Dundee looked good going forward and even more so when O'Hara came on for Vincent. It was no surprise when Darren O'Dea scored the third with a great header. Soon after it was 4-2 when Greg Stewart got his second with a cool finish inside the box. Soon after it was 5-2 again Stewart netting with easy after good play from Holt. Yordi Teijsse replaced Rory Loy and set up goal number six with a delightful flick that released Kane Hemmings and he made no mistake.
Dundee seen out the rest of the game with Dumbarton players looked shell shocked at the end. No wonder because most Dundee fans never seen that final score line at half-time.
