Julius Eskesen decided it in the 83rd minute with a composed finish, giving Dundee Utd a 3-2 win at Falkirk.

Introduced with the hosts down to ten (77.), Eskesen immediately stretched the game for United, drifting into pockets where defenders could not track him.

He then timed his run to the centre and swept Ivan Dolcek's pass into the bottom right corner (83.), a clinical touch that turned a level contest the Arabs' way.

Eskesen finished with one attempt, one on target and one goal from seven touches, plus two accurate passes and a recovery, underlining maximum impact in limited minutes.

With the Bairns a man short and tiring, the Dane attacked the inside left channel repeatedly, keeping United on the front foot and forcing Falkirk's back line to retreat.

United host Spartans in the Scottish Cup next. The Bairns visit Hearts next.
