A Damian Casalinuovo double gave Dundee United a 2-0 victory over Kilmarnock in their Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash at Rugby Park.

The Argentinean striker put the Taysiders ahead from the spot in the 21st minute after Killie left-back Garry Hay had tripped United midfielder Jennison Myrie-Williams inside the box.

In a game which saw good performances from both goalkeepers, and several missed chances, Casalinuovo was handed his second goal on a plate in the 57th minute when he was set up by Myrie-Williams.
