Match Report
A shot from United winger Wattie Carlyle flashed into the net to give United a lead in this Division One meeting. The decisive strike in this 2-1 win came from Jim Irvine after his effort eluded Ritchie and Shearer. It was also the day that the Tannadice floodlights were switched on for the first time and there was over 21,000 there to witness Irvine's illuminated goal.
