Match Report

TTA report

In a biting wind a poor crowd saw an even and largely uneventful first half. Thistle were restricted to long shots. Celtic went ahead from 12 yards (58). Thistle responded but “a long drooping shot“ beat Campbell (DR). Whittle reduced the lead (89) after some fruitless attempts but by then the game was won.
