Dundee 4-1 Hibernian: Analysis

Sometimes it can take one incident to ignite a season – perhaps that Jordan Obita red card could be the catalyst that does just that for Dundee.

Up to that point it looked like it was going to be a long night for the home side, after that they were a team transformed, playing with the swagger and attacking intent that was the hallmark of Tony Docherty’s team last season.

Dundee have played some good football this term without always getting results. Docherty will be hoping victory - and the manner of it - can be a launchpad.

Three valuable points must provide the manager with real belief that his team can find themselves in the winners' enclosure more often than not over the coming weeks and months.
