    Calderwood still waiting for first win as manager

    Colin Calderwood is still waiting for his first point as Hibernian boss after David Goodwillie's late winner secured a 1-0 victory for Dundee United at Tannadice. United, who had lost their previous three games in all competitions, snatched the points when Goodwillie scored three minutes from time. Goodwillie's goal arrived after Hibernian had blown the chance to take the lead earlier in the second half when John Rankin's penalty was saved by Dusan Pernis. The result means Calderwood now has two losses in two matches in charge of Hibs, who have two wins from 13 games in all competitions this term ahead of next weekend's Edinburgh derby with Hearts Lewis Stevenson thrashed a left-footed shot wide after six minutes before Paul Hanlon timed his tackle well at the other end after going to ground inside the penalty box to challenge Goodwillie. John Rankin shot over for Hibs before United had the best opportunity of the half after 19 minutes. Daly's diving header from Barry Douglas' corner hit Rankin on the line before being held by Hibs goalkeeper Mark Brown. Derek Riordan shot wide before seeing an attempt held by Pernis. Garry Kenneth, Daly and Gomis had opportunities before Riordan spurned Hibs' best chance of the opening period.

    Strong work

    After strong work from Galbraith and Edwin de Graaf, the striker only lofted the ball into Pernis' arms as he tried to curl a right-footed effort into the top corner. Riordan shot straight at Pernis again, but it was the hosts who finished the half the better with three chances in quick succession. Douglas cracked a left-footed shot from the edge of the area straight at Brown, Goodwillie's turn and shot was cleared before Daly's header fell comfortably for the Hibs goalkeeper. Douglas and Galbraith were booked for fouls on each other in quick succession early in the second period before Goodwillie shot into the side-netting when he should have done better after being played through by Daly's knock down. Stevenson glanced a header wide for Hibs and Douglas shot a free-kick at Brown before the visitors were awarded a penalty when Buaben fouled Galbraith. Rankin hit the resulting spot-kick left-footed, but Pernis pushed it away diving down to his left and the Hibs forward failed to connect with the rebound. Hibs' misery was complete when Goodwillie pounced on a long ball. Brown and his defence mis-judged the bounce, allowing Goodwillie to knock the ball between the Hibs goalkeeper's legs and run through to make sure by prodding in.
