United threaten again, this time from a corner kick.

Daniel Bennie is front and centre in the six-yard box and his header somehow goes wide.

Another corner awarded, so it must have taken a deflection.

This game is starting to spark into life!

Saints' Kai Fotheringham is robbed on the edge of his own box, but Ethan Hamilton, who does so well to win the ball, can't keep his shot down.

Jack Walton produces a superb save from an effort by Emmanuel Longelo.

The left-back loops the ball towards goal and the United goalkeeper, on his heels, pushes the ball over the crossbar.

Up the other end, St Johnstone forward Danny Schmidt fires well wide of the far post before the offside flag goes up and spares his blushes.

On the next attack, Kai Fotheringham gets himself into a good position but can't make his mind up about which way he wants to go and is forced backwards.

This match at Tannadice is incredibly open. Blink and you will miss something!

United are pushing strongly for an equaliser, but Motherwell are looking to catch the hosts out with some sharp counter attacks.

Zac Sapsford has another go and Well goalkeeper Alex Paulsen produces a very strong save.

Dundee look like they're starting to kick into gear now.

First, Alan Forrest has a pop from the edge of the box, but the ball is easily caught by goalkeeper Ross Sinclair.

They charge forward again and Ethan Hamilton clumsily takes the ball down inside the St Johnstone box before driving a low shot towards the near post, which Sinclair has to scramble behind.

Hamilton delivers the resulting corner, but it's easily dealt with by the hosts.

Lyall Cameron is next to have a go at Tannadice. The little on-loan Rangers midfielder drifts in to space and his strike takes a couple of nicks before going out for a United corner kick.
