Outstanding performance
Livingston•AttackerDundee United snatched a dramatic victory with Zachary Sapsford's 90th-minute penalty after a thrilling encounter at Tannadice. Will Ferry's early strike gave the hosts the perfect start, but Lewis Smith's quickfire double just after the break turned the match on its head within four minutes. The momentum swung decisively when substitute Krisztián Keresztes leveled proceedings with 15 minutes remaining, capitalizing on manager's tactical changes that saw three substitutions at the hour mark. Despite the even possession statistics (51-49% to United) and closely matched shot counts (15-14), it was United's clinical finishing in crucial moments that proved the difference, converting their big chances when it mattered most to secure all three points.
