Match Report

TTA report

Morton were easily the better team in the first half but a combination of stout defending and poor shooting left it goalless at half-time. The second half was faster and more exciting. Steel scored for Thistle from a Branscombe pass. Morton pressed and got a deserved equaliser for a point apiece.
