Dundee started quickly and scored in the 1st minute, Ethan Ingram hurled over a long throw, Seb Palmer-Houlden nodded on and Simon Murray stretched to get a touch to send his shot looping in slow motion over the keeper 1-0 Dundee.
After 18 minutes it was 2-0 when a great Josh Mulligan run he then played in Simon Murray who scored with ease. Four minutes later it was three. Luis Longstaff sent a dodgy backpass towards Newman. Seb Palmer-Houlden was lurking and nipped in to drag the ball past the helpless keeper and score with a very tidy finish from a tight angle.
Mulligan had another great run but shot just wide of the far post, Dundee were playing some superb football. No 4 arrived afer Robertson found Simon Murray to poke home to complet his hat-trick.
Seb Palmer-Houlden got his second goal when he shot home after a good pass from Ingram to make the half-time score 5-0 to blow ICT away. It could have been more.
Second half Lyall Cameron came on for Luke McCowan ICT battle well and blocked a few Dundee efforts on goal,
Curtis Main and Scott Tiffoney replaced Murray and Palmer-Houlden just before the hour. It made no difference to Dundee’s dominance. Ryan Astley also came on for Mo Sylla with Jordan McGhee stepping forward into the midfield enforcer roled in which Sylla excelled today.
Dundee scored no 6 when a great ball in from Cameron and Antonio Portales headed home after 79 minutes. Dundee kept going to the end and were denied any more goal by decent ICT defending.
A great win for the dark blues and it will make them seeded in the draw which takes place on Sunday.
