Chuffed Jim Goodwin claimed his first win as Aberdeen manager and then urged his players to restore even more pride by gatecrashing the top six.
The Dons claimed the victory at the fifth time of asking thanks to a penalty brace from Lewis Ferguson and another from Vicente Besuijen in their 3-1 win over Hibs.
Aberdeen are still 10th but two off the top six and four off fourth going into the final two games before the split.
