Match Report

TTA report

Thistle were never at the races. Rangers led 2-0 at half-time. A 3rd goal (a back-heel from a cross) killed Thistle off. Marshall scored with a fine header from a cross but Rangers (down to 10 men) scored towards the end when their centre-forward broke away and outstripped 3 chasing defenders.
