Dundee United have beaten Hamilton Academical 1-0 in the Scottish Premiership thanks to a Chris Erskine goal in the 70th minute.
Hamilton started the match strongly, with Louis Longridge and Michael Devlin both denied by Radoslaw Cierzniak in the opening 10 minutes.
United midfielder Charlie Telfer struck a free-kick over the bar following a foul by Darian MacKinnon, before Ali Crawford's long-range effort was saved at the other end.
Paul Dixon and Nadir Ciftci both failed to hit the target and Callum Morris headed narrowly over the bar from a free kick.
Accies striker Nigel Hasselbaink then saw his shot blocked on the line, and Ciftci's shot was blocked five minutes later.
The visitors came close to scoring just after the restart when Stephen Hendrie hit the post from inside the area.
Erskine gave United the lead in the 70th minute, scoring from outside the box.
