Dons fail to clinch final top six place
The Dons then broke from defence and McGinn was set up by Vernon before Souter made a late interception to deny the Irishman. Aberdeen failed to make the corner count as Vernon headed over. With Dundee still leading neither side seemed to want to accept the invitation into the top six. United appealed for a penalty in the 83rd minute as McKay-Steven went down, but again Craig Thomson was unimpressed. Brown took a gamble in the last five minutes as Pawlett replaced Shaughnessy in an attempt to make that top six spot.
A Langfield free kick in the 86th minute was delivered right into the hands of his counterpart at the other end. Aberdeen then broke as McGinn released Low. The youngster fed the ball to substitute Pawlett, but he couldn’t finish and had to settle for a corner. Jack swung the ball in, but again it was straight at the keeper. McGinn then went close as Vernon dummied the ball into his path and his shot was blocked by Cierzniak. At the other end United fired over the bar then a Fallon special from distance was deflected for another corner as the game headed towards injury time. Once again the corner was disappointing, but seconds later Rae fired wide as three minutes of injury time was indicated. United then won a free kick in a dangerous position at the edge of the area, but Naysmith cleared before a late attack allowed substitute Boulding to score with the last kick of the game.
