Dundee United moved level on points with Ladbrokes Championship leaders Hibernian thanks to a 1-0 win at Tannadice on Friday night.
Tony Andreu converted a 73rd-minute penalty after substitute Simon Murray had been brought down by Liam Fontaine to earn Ray McKinnon's men a vital victory against their title rivals.
After a quiet first half, the second period produced plenty of talking points and United keeper Cammy Bell saved a spot-kick from Martin Boyle before Andreu made no mistake with his penalty to the delight of the home fans in the crowd of 10,925.
