Levein wanted more United goals

Levein watched his side keep another clean-sheet at Tannadice

Dundee United manager Craig Levein could not believe his side did not score more goals in the win over Kilmarnock at Tannadice.

"We should have had the game dead and buried before half-time," he told BBC Sport after the 2-0 victory.

"We missed some unbelievable chances, played some good stuff and totally controlled the game.

"Even when we went down to 10-men we continued to play well and we thoroughly merited the three points."

Striker Jordan Robertson was sent off late in the game after grappling with Killie keeper Alan Combe.

Robertson wanted the ball after United had been awarded a penalty, which was missed by Noel Hunt, who had scored the opening goal.

"I saw Jordan push Alan Combe and I thought he'd been hit with a bullet," Levein joked.

"I thought to myself 'that was stupid'.

"We have had a lot of red cards this season and it's something we need to address."
