Then onto the game Neil McCann made five changes to the team Elliot Parish, Cammy Kerr, Kevin Holt, Faissal El Bakhatoui and Roarie Deacon came in and Scott Bain, Kerr Waddle, Jesse Curran, Randy Wolters and A-Jay Leitch dropped out.
Hibs attacked from the kick off and scored when a great run and finish from Martin Boyle not the start we needed in a tough game. But Dundee settled and played some delightful football. It was no surprize when after good play from Roarie Deacon and his cross was headed home by striker Marcus Haber to level the game.
Dundee continued to play well but failed to make any clear cut chances to go in ahead at the break.
Second half and both teams attacked with Hibs looking more dangerous with Murray forcing Elliot Parish into two good saves. Soon after a barging match broke out after McGowan was fouled and soon after it looked like Stokes had punched Hendry after it cooled down both Stokes and Hendry were booked.
On 62 minutes Hibs regained the lead when Stokes found room out wide and Murray scored with a clever finish. Dundee tried to get level again and only a stunning save from Hibs Keeper Marciano to deny El Bakhtaoui. Both teams attack but produced no clear cut chance.
Time ran out for The Dark Blues but they played well today but they need to turn their pressure into goals. The next game against Kilmarnock it the most vital game this season we must halt the run of defeats or we are in big trouble at the bottom of the league.
Dundee: Parish, Kerr (Curran 72), Hendry, Meekings, Holt, Kamara, Spence, Deacon (O'Hara 60), McGowan (Leitch-Smith 79), El Bakhtaoui, Haber. Subs Unused: Ferrie, Moussa, Wolter, Waddell.
