Delighted Mark McGhee praised his Dundee players for piling the pressure on the shoulders of relegation rivals St Johnstone.
The Dark Blues recorded a long, overdue win as they cut the gap on Saints to three points.
Dundee could still be relegated on Wednesday if St Johnstone pick up a point against Aberdeen but McGhee was delighted his team did all they could.
McGhee claimed: “It gives them a lot to think about. Not only that but for us, we can look at this result tonight and think we have a chance at the weekend of winning as well.
