Kai Fotheringham was one of the Dundee United players left frustrated

Bottom side Queen's Park's resolute defensive display secured a goalless draw to prevent Dundee United closing on Raith Rovers at the top of the Scottish Championship.

Winger Matthew Cudjoe blazed over the best chance of a first half in which United dominated possession.

Striker Louis Moult fired straight at home goalkeeper Callum Ferrie as United continued to press after the break.

Home forward Ruari Paton also failed to turn the ball home at the back post.
