GOAL Kilmarnock 2-1 Dundee Unitedpublished at 72mins
Daniel Armstrong
Kilmarnock are back in front out of the blue.
Jordan Jones jinks from side to side before clipping a cute ball into the edge of the six-yard box and somehow the diminutive Daniel Armstrong finds himself unmarked to head home.
The 25-year-old English winger is becoming a key man for the Ayrshire side.

Kilmarnock 1-1 Dundee United
Christian Doidge has been fairly anonymous so far and, when Daniel Armstrong finds the on-loan Hibs striker with a cross, he can only head high and wide from 12 yards.
YELLOW CARD Chrisene (Kilmarnock)published at 67mins
Kilmarnock 1-1 Dundee United
Ben Chrisene has hardly been on the pitch and the on-loan Aston Villa left-back already earns a booking.
That's three for each team now. All getting a bit tense and untidy.
YELLOW CARD Djoum (Dundee Utd)published at 66mins
Kilmarnock 1-1 Dundee United
Arnaud Djoum is being employed in a destroyer/creator role in deep midfield in his first United start and the former Hearts midfielder earns a booking for showing more of the former quality with a clumsy challenge.

Big chance for United as Dylan Levitt plays the ball into the six-yard box.
It comes off the shin of striker Tony Watt and into the arms of goalkeeper Zach Hemming.

Chrisene replaces Stokespublished at 62mins
Kilmarnock 1-1 Dundee United
Kilmarnock make a change, with on-loan Aston Villa left-back Ben Chrisene replacing fellow English defender Chris Stokes.
It looks like Derek McInnes has moved from three at the back to two.
Increased 'intensity'published at 21:04 British Summer Time 18 October 2022

Former Dundee United manager on BBC SportsoundQuote MessageThis game has definitely gone up a notch. I thought it was quite intense in the first half, but it's even more intense now

It's becoming increasingly scrappy as the weight of expectation builds on both sides.
United are edging it at the moment though.

YELLOW CARD Wright (Kilmarnock)published at 52mins
Kilmarnock 1-1 Dundee United
A clumsy challenge from Joe Wright on Tony Watt and the Kilmarnock defender goes into Kevin Clancy's book.
The home defence clear the subsequent free-kick, but United can't make anything of a couple of corners.
Postpublished at 50mins
Kilmarnock 1-1 Dundee United
It's United's turn to threaten as Jamie McGrath's corner finds Tony Watt peeling away to the back post.
However, the striker's header finds the chest of Kyle Lafferty in front of goal and the Kilmarnock forward thumps it clear.
CLOSE!published at 48mins
Kilmarnock 1-1 Dundee United
Kilmarnock start the second half as they ended the first - looking the more dangerous.
Daniel Armstrong drifts in from the right, leaving a couple of United players in his wake, but his low left-foot drive is just wide of the far post.
PENALTY APPEALpublished at 46mins
Kilmarnock 1-1 Dundee United
Cries for a penalty by the United fans, but they were half-hearted as striker Tony Watt crumbles in the penalty box far too easily.
KICK-OFF SECOND HALFpublished at 20:50 British Summer Time 18 October 2022
Kilmarnock 1-1 Dundee United
Kilmarnock get the second half going and goalscorer Kyle Lafferty looks to be moving more freely after picking up a knock late on in the first half.
We're still no closer to knowing who is going through to the last four...

HALF-TIME SCORESpublished at 20:44 British Summer Time 18 October 2022
Caley Thistle are still losing to bottom side Hamilton as they look to go three points clear at the top of the Championship.
League 1 leaders Dunfermline are doing the business so far, though, while third-top Falkirk are easing to a derby win.

Craig Levein
Former Dundee United manager on BBC SportsoundQuote MessageThere hasn't been a multitude of chances, or brilliant play, but it's the competitive nature of the game that has been quite enthralling. The referee's handled it pretty well - I'd give him a 7/10, which is quite high for me!
