Match Report

TTA report

Thistle took the lead (15) with “a beautiful header” (SC) by Raisbeck from a free-kick but a good shot made it 1-1 just on half-time. The second half was keenly fought although Thistle were not as effective. Motherwell improved but their forwards were wasteful. They did however hit the bar but King grabbed a late winner.
