Match Report
United inflicted Motherwell's first Fir Park defeat for over a year when they literally took the home defence to pieces during the first half.
However the brilliance of Peter McCloy kept the Tannadice sides lead down to a third minute header from Ian Scott. Then it was the turn of the United defence to star before Alan Gordon broke clear to clinch things four minutes from the end.
