Tam Courts insists Celtic's late winner was harsh on Dundee United

“I think we were probably worthy of a point in terms of executing a game plan really well,” he said, United for long spells appearing on course to follow up their 1-1 draw in Glasgow’s east end with another unlikely point.

But in terms of endeavour and what we put in, we merited a point.
