Hearts scored within the first 2 minutes after they got a free kick 25 yards from goal. Australian midfielder BOZANIC curled a perfect shot over the wall and inside Jack Hamilton’s left hand post. Worse was to follow when Hearts went 2-0 up a quick break away send Michael Smith clear to fire over a low cross. Steven MacLean missed the ball at the near post, putting off Hamilton and allowing NAISMITH to slide home the second goal at the far post.
Dundee had a great chance to get back into the game when Benjamin Källman controlled a Calvin Miller cross but was pulled down by Jimmy Dunne in front of goal. Calvin Miller took the resulting penalty but fired wide.
Dundee got to half-time with the score still at 2-0 it has been too easy for Hearts, with Dundee failing to get decent balls into the box to help our strikers.
Hearts made it 3-0 after just 21 seconds of the second half when the scored from the kick off, Arnaud Djoum ambled into the penalty under negligible pressure and hit a low cross beyond the far post where Naismith screwed the ball back past Hamilton to give MACLEAN the easiest of chances in front of the empty goal.
Dundee had made one change at half time Madianga came on for Spence, but with the third goal the game was over as a contest and another home defeat for the struggling dark blues.
They are losing too many goals and New Manager Jim McIntyre has a big big job on his hands to turn this around.
Next week is Celtic at home followed by massive two games at Motherwell, and St Mirren at home. Games that we must gain points or it will be a long long season.
