Dundee head coach Steven Pressley: "From an offensive perspective, we certainly have to do better. We lacked, in the first half, a little bit of thrust.
"We got a little bit more thrust in the second half, but our final pass, our final decision wasn't right.
"And over the course of the 90 minutes, we didn't deserve anything from the game. I'm aware of that.
"We're at the early stages just now, we've improved a lot in our defensive actions, but now we have to improve in our offensive actions and we'll continue to work on that. We'll continue to strive to be better in that area, but we know that, we know, and it's finding the balance.
"You can improve in offensive aspects and then not in the defensive. We've improved defensively, now we need to improve offensively and that will only come with time, perseverance and a lot of work on the training ground."
Dundee United manager Jim Goodwin: "We're delighted with the result, it's exactly what we wanted. The clean sheet was really important as well.
"I don't think we've defended terribly from open play up to now, set plays have cost us in a number of the games that we've been involved in, but today we showed that over the last couple of weeks, with that break that we've had, we've been able to spend a bit more time on the training pitch and go through the shape of the team without the ball and obviously spent a lot of time working on our set-play set-up.
"And today I thought the boys were excellent.
"The overall performance was really pleasing from back to front, showed good composure, good bravery on the ball at times to play our way out of trouble and scored a couple of really good goals as far as we're concerned."
