Great pressure from John Souttar forces an error in the Dundee midfield, the ball breaks to Chris Erskine and he feeds an excellent threaded pass perfectly for the on rushing Blair Spittal to fire home first time into the net.

Good build-up play from United sees John Rankin play in Blair Spitttal at the edge of the box, the young midfielder uses both feet to shimmy past McPake then cutely drive home with the outside of his right foot much to the delight of the fans.
