Only team change was that Lewis Spence replaced injured Paul McGowan, Dundee started the game well and were keeping the ball well. Dundee were hitting on the break and the Accies keeper had to make a couple of saves. Imrie had a chance for the home team but his effort was well over the bar. Dundee took the lead on 37 minutes a good deep cross from Miller and Andy Boyle headed home from 6 yards out to the delight of the DFC fans. It finished that way at half-time.
Second half and early on Dundee should have made it 2-0 when a Ryan Innis shot was blocked on the line, it was a great chance. Soon after and Nabi was through but put his shot just over the bar again it should have been 2-0. Hamilton were unlucky with a sweeping move but Brustad somehow missed. Hamilton hit the bar twice but really that was all that Dundee faced in the final minutes.
Deep in injury time Dundee sealed the points when good wing play from Deacon he played in Kamara who passed to Kharl Madianga who scored with a powerful drive to send the Dundee fans wild with delight.
A great team performance today and it was great to get our first win. The real work starts again next Saturday when high flying Kilmarnock visit Dens Park.
