'Remarkable' effort from United - Goodwinpublished at 15:15 British Summer Time
FT: Dundee United 2-1 Aberdeen
Dundee United manager Jim Goodwin tells BBC Scotland: "We feel absolutely brilliant, as you can imagine. The celebrations in the dressing room are great to see.
"I just think it's a wonderful way to finish off a really good, strong campaign. We've been getting a lot of criticism of late and rightly so for our performances in the past four games.
"But as I said the league is decided over 38 games not just the last four. We gave ourselves an opportunity today.
"It's been a remarkable effort from top to bottom at the club. It's been a really good two years.
"I've had a couple of promotions as manager and enjoyed those moments. Today feels like one of those moments in qualifying for Europe.
"It will be a new experience but one we're excited for."

BBC Sport Scotland at Tannadice
Elsewhere at Tannadice, what a brilliant achievement for Dundee United. Their first season back in the Premiership and they've finished fourth.
Surely that was beyond their wildest dreams back in August? It's party time here as well.
Aberdeen still make Europe, and of course they still have the Scottish Cup final to come against Celtic.
