Dundee made only one change from the Hearts game when Trevor Carson replaced Jon McCracken in goals.
Dundee attacked from the start and had a few efforts on goal, Luke McCowan went closest with a shot which just wide of the post. Dundee looked to be in the mood and it was surprize when they did on 12 minutes.
From a McCowan corner Airdrie failed to clear and the ball fell to Seb Palmer-Houlden to knock the ball home to score a few yards out.
Dundee then missed a few chances when it looked easier to score, the goals it seemed would follow.
Scott Tiffoney forced the Diamonds keeper to make a great reflex save to turn his header over the ball.
The second goal came when Jordan McGhee headed home on from Cameron's corner. Airdrie themselves at least played some tidy football and were a wee bit unlucky not to score.
Second half and the visitors made three changes to their team, they had a good spell for ten minutes and pushed Dundee back.
But as it happens in football a great pass forward from Luke McCowan put Scott Tiffoney clear and he went on to smash the ball home to make it 3-0. A well worked goal and likely finished the game score wise.
Just before the third goal Fin Robertson replaced Deb Palmer-Houlden who had picked up a wee injury.
Soon after Airdrie were reduced to ten men when MacDonald was sent off for a last man foul on Murray.
Curtis Main replaced Simon Murray after 70 minutes and minutes later is was 4-0. From another Cameron corner Antonio Portales headed home which flew into the corner of the net.
A couple of minute late it 4-1 when Frizzell scored a fine goal when he kept going and fired the ball home.
Ryan Astley came on for Mo Sylla to play in central defence with Jordan McGhee moving into the holding midfield role.
Dundee kept going and Curtis Main made it 5-1 with a clever flick to score from a McCowan cross.
In injury time Dundee made it six. McCowan’s cross beyond the far post was met with Robertson’s volley. Wright saved, but Lyall Cameron headed into the roof of the net from almost on the goal line..
That was the final score in a game Dundee were too powerful for a good Airdrie side who at least played football.
Also great to have six different scorers which must please Dundee manager Tony Docherty.
