- 34' Jamie Robson is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Rangers FC tonight.
- 38' Connor Goldson catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 38.
- 41' That is a Yellow card for Dundee United FC. Charlie Mulgrew will be fuming at that decision.
- 46' Dundee United FC is showing some good football. However, Dundee United FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 50' Dundee United FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Adrian Sporle is hanging Logan Chalmers on the field on 50 minute.
- 55' The 35-year-old Peter Pawlett has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 60' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

- 90' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Jeando Fuchs on 90 minutes.
- Full Time. Dundee United FC beats Rangers FC
