Hibernian left Dens Park with all three points after edging Dundee 1-2 on Sunday in a Scottish Premiership clash that swung back and forth before the visitors held their nerve. The away side went in ahead at the break, a single goal enough to separate the two sides at half-time, and that early platform gave them something to work with in the second half. Dundee huffed and puffed for an equaliser and eventually got one, but by then Hibernian had already found a second to restore their cushion, and the home side simply ran out of time to find a way back. For Dundee, it's another home game where they've come up just short against one of the division's more established sides, and questions will linger about how they let a manageable deficit slip away for so long. Hibernian, on the other hand, will take real encouragement from digging out a win on the road without ever looking totally comfortable. Three points is three points, and this one moves them nicely up the table while leaving Dundee to regroup.
