A marvellous piece of individual skill from Paul Sheerin and a late Steven Milne strike gave St Johnstone a derby win over Dundee.

Derek Holmes thought he had put the home side in front on 29 minutes, but his header was chalked off for a foul.

St Johnstone keeper Alan Main did well to block a Rhian Dodds shot.

Saints had two penalty claims rejected before Sheerin twice beat his marker before floating in the opener and Milne fired home an unstoppable drive.
