  2. HALF-TIME Kilmarnock 1-1 Dundee United

    An entertaining League Cup quarter-final reaches the break all square, but it is Kilmarnock who have edged it.

    Kyle Lafferty fired the hosts into the lead with a penalty he won himself with a shot off the arm of Liam Smith.

    However, Glenn Middleton fired a reply a few minutes later in what was a rare bit of creativity for the visitors.
