Match Report

TTA report

Thistle started well enough but once top of the league Hearts got a grip of the game after about 10 minutes there was only going to be one winner. 2 goals in either half saw Thistle well beaten. Hearts played with 10 men in the second half and could even afford the luxury of missing 2 open goals.
