Lyall Cameron's 79th-minute strike earned Dundee United a deserved 1-1 draw at St Johnstone. United trailed at half-time to Josh Fowler's sixth goal of the Scottish Premiership season. The league's top scorer was ruled out through illness for the second half, and manager Simo Valakari could not replicate last Sunday's 1-0 victory in Aberdeen.

Jim Goodwin's side had too many attacking options to contain. Despite a strong defensive performance from the hosts, Cameron scored the second goal of his impressive loan spell from Rangers. Both clubs are now locked on 12 points in the top half of the table after encouraging starts to the campaign.

The visitors dominated the opening 20 minutes, with Cheick Diabate returning from suspension and Jesse Randall causing problems down the right flank. St Johnstone settled and took the lead just before the 20-minute mark when Fowler pounced on Enes Alic's cross. United struggled to regain their early momentum, but Cameron's late equaliser ensured a share of the points.

Steward made a crucial save in stoppage time from Zac Sapsford to preserve a point for the hosts.
