Match Report

TTA report

21,000 saw top of the league Celtic attack from the start and Howden had some fine saves. Slightly surprisingly, Thistle scored when a stinging Callaghan shot was parried by the keeper and Smith finished but Celtic scored twice before half-time. They had most of the second half and scored again (75).
