Time for me to sign off folks after watching Dundee United take the three points in the Highlands in what was a cracking five-goal thriller.

Join us again tomorrow for all the action on a busy day of Scottish football.

Thanks and good night.

"First half we got into great positions and passed up some good goalscoring opportunities so that was frustrating. United showed their quality and we need to show a bit more belief, and do things a bit quicker.

"We were trying to be clinical but the final ball let us down and good teams counter on you quickly.

"That's the last three weeks we've went behind but we've shown we have a bit about us. We need to keep trying to improve the quality in the final third.

"We'll keep working away, we're certainly doing a lot of things well but we need to start turning that into results."

There's been a fair bit of debate on Sportsound about the red card for Liam Boyce, but referee Bobby Madden had no doubts and was quick to send the striker packing.

"It should have been more comfortable. Credit to them as they came back into it, even with 10 men, but we took our foot off the gas and stopped passing it as we should have.

"Disappointed with the way we finished but we have a few lads struggling with a stomach problem so I'm just glad to get it finished.

"I'm delighted for Nadir Ciftci, he's been frustrated of late with his goal tally but he was clinical tonight.

"That was a massive game for us and we had to win it. It's crying out for someone to do that [challenge Celtic] but we will need to be better than we were at times tonight."

"Credit to County, they kept plugging away and the twice they got a bit of quality they got goals."

So Dundee United leapfrog Inverness Caley Thistle to go second in the Premiership, while plucky Ross County remain at the foot of the Premiership table.

Inverness boss John Hughes took in tonight's match and now wonder he was smiling, what a night of entertainment in Dingwall.

It's all over and Ross County's late surge isn't enough to earn a point as Dundee United go second in the table after a clinical display of counter-attacking football. Great entertainment.

Last minute of stoppage time in Dingwall...

United almost get another on the break as Gary Mackay-Steven cuts in from the left and drives in a shot that Mark Brown does well to turn away.

County are piling forward looking for the leveller.

Sub Darren Maatsen latches on to a through ball from Martin Woods and lashes a left-foot shot in off the underside of the bar.

Or maybe not...

The red card may well have ended County's hopes of getting back into this one.

We have five minutes left of the 90.

United's final change sees John Rankin on for Calum Butcher.

Ross County substitute Liam Boyce is shown a straight red card for a studs-up challenge on Paul Paton.

It's that man Yoann Arquin again, racing beyond the back line and getting in on goal. He's having a personal battle with Radoslaw Cierzniak and this time the United keeper comes out on top with a fine save.

Arquin could have squared this match all on his own.

The hosts almost haul themselves to within one goal of United as Yoann Arquin breaks away and takes the ball past keeper Radoslaw Cierzniak, but the striker gets the ball caught in his feet and the chance is gone.

This might not be over yet.

Jamie Reckord delivers into the area and after initially taking a bad touch, Yoann Arquin smashes the ball home with his left foot.
