As I made my way to Tannadice on Sunday, the anticipation for the upcoming match was palpable. From that moment until January 11, United faces the daunting challenge of seven games. Historically, the odds have not been in United's favor, with only three victories in the last 80 encounters against Celtic, who have dominated with 61 wins.
This season, Celtic has showcased their strength, making them a formidable opponent. United, despite their recent promotion and a shaky performance last time out—where they conceded four goals to Motherwell—managed to demonstrate tactical astuteness. The draw was not just a result; it was a testament to United's resilience and strategic approach against a superior team.
Fans left the stadium reflecting on the performance, recognizing that while the odds were stacked against them, United's ability to adapt and hold their ground was a significant step forward in their campaign.
