Dundee manager Neil McCann heaped credit on his players after they earned their first win and clean sheet away from home this season with a convincing 2-0 triumph at Ross County.
Mark O’Hara and Faissal El Bakhtaoui scored the goals as Dundee lifted themselves to ninth in the table.
McCann said: “It was two great goals but performance-wise it was good to beat Ross County, who have been playing well under Owen Coyle.
“We are showing signs of adaptability and flexibility that I have been working on. We showed a different side to our game by playing from the back.
“We got that first goal then became a different animal and hit on the counter.
“We have been poor this season and I think that’s the first away clean sheet Dundee have got and that’s really pleasing.
“I told the players that they are beginning to show glimpses of that hard work they are putting into training.
“I have to say Elliot Parish was brilliant with two clean sheets (in three games) and I am buzzing for him because he waited a long time to come in.
“Mark O’Hara hit a wonderful goal and we have been encouraging him to go forward. He has that in the bag and he is starting to believe in himself now.”
