Dundee United shocked Scottish League Cup

A stunning extra-time volley by Dundee United substitute Gary McSwegan consigned holders Rangers to a shock Scottish League Cup quarter-final exit at Ibrox Park.

McSwegan's goal six minutes into extra-time gave United a 1-0 win over a Rangers team deprived of several internationals who were on World Cup duty.

The home side dominated throughout but could not find a way through a determined and well-organised United side, who snatched the tie with virtually their only shot on target.

Italian striker Marco Negri, scorer of five goals against the same opposition last month, was held scoreless by the United defence.

Dunfermline Athletic also advanced to the semis with a 1-0 win over Hearts - thanks to a goal late in extra-time by Alan Moore.
