Motherwell 1 Dundee United 2: Steelmen pay penalty as Terrors come from behind to move off foot of table

Motherwell Well Steelmen Steven Fletcher Terrors Dundee United Liam Kelly Stuart Kettlewell Van Veen Calum Butcher

Motherwell were left stunned by relegation-threatened Dundee United after the Terrors came from behind to win and move off of the bottom of the Scottish Premiership.

Kevin van Veen's first half strike - his eighth goal in five games - looked to be sending the Steelmen to a sixth win in eight games under boss Stuart Kettlewell, but an Ilmari Niskanen strike and a Jamie McGrath penalty in the space of eighth second half minutes stunned the hosts.

It means the Steelmen stay eighth and are now nine points off of bottom side Ross County and eight clear of Kilmarnock in the relegation play-off spot, so their survival is far from secure just yet.
