Dundee United score three first-half goals to ease past Stranraer

Dundee United progress to the next round of the Scottish Cup with a 3-0 win away at Stranraer.

Dundee United are through to the Scottish Cup quarter-final after an easy 3-0 victory away at Stranraer.

After a quiet start to the game, midfielder Chris Erskine slotted the away side into the lead from inside the box.

Five minutes later, Sean Dillon set up Ryan Dow to score his side's second with a crisp finish into the far corner.

Dundee United then assured their place in the next round with a third goal in the 31st minute, when Dow added his second as he converted Nadir Cifti's pass.

Cifti then almost scored himself, but his curling effort was tipped wide by the home keeper.

Stranraer went close in the second half through Chris Aitken and Grant Gallagher, but they only managed to put three of their nine shots on target and were never in danger of causing a cup shock.
