DUNDEE UNITED manager Jackie McNamara heaped praise on classy kid Jordan Moore after his late equaliser at Station Park last night.

The striker came off the bench to secure a draw in 88 minutes, capping a brave fightback off the field.

Moore has battled back from skin cancer which threatened his career but is now aiming to take the Premiership by storm.

United boss McNamara said: “It’s a great moment for Jordan. We’re all really chuffed for him.

“What he’s been through in the past year or so off the field has been phenomenal.”

Andrew Robertson had given United a first-half lead after a slick one-two with Aiden Connolly.

But in 51 minutes Forfar were awarded a penalty when Omar Kader was brought down by Darren Petrie and former United ace Dale Hilson fired past Radoslaw Cierzniak.

Two minutes later, Hilson calmly swept the ball past Cierzniak after being denied by the Polish keeper.

But United levelled late on when Moore finished from close-range.

CZECH defender Jiri Lenko hopes to secure a move to Dundee United in the next few days.
