Monaco arrived at Tannadice for the 2nd leg requiring four goals to give them any chance of going though. There were three changes from the previous weeks win over Hamilton, with Hamish McAlpine, Derek Stark and Billy Kirkwood coming in for Andy Graham, Richard Gough and John Reilly. With Prince Rainier and Princess Grace, of the Principality in attendance, United failed to live up to the high standards set in the first leg.
United made a good start but dropped the pace soon after allowing Monaco to take control of this game. With no goals in the first 45 minutes, it took only 60 seconds for Monaco to notch in the second half. It was Swedish international Edstroem who scored, adding to his goal in the 1st leg, this time powerfully heading past McAlpine via the underside of the bar.
In 59 minutes, United's aggregate lead was reduced to a single goal as Bruno Bellone unleashed a swerving 30 yarder into the net. United tried to fight back, but Eamonn Bannon's header was inches wide. With United starting to look nervous, it took an inspired substitution in the 76th minute, with Ralph Milne on for Graeme Payne, to lift the atmosphere at Tannadice. The substitute calmed the United support when, with eight minutes to go, he was on the spot to slide home a low Paul Sturrock cross from close in. Seconds later only a brilliant full-length save from McAlpine prevented Edstroem grabbing another, as he pushed the ball on to the post. Monaco pushed everything into attack and came close several times in the final five minutes, but United held out to progress through to the second round draw.
