Match Report

TTA report

Celtic Park. “A poor game“ (SC). Finally - after 245 minutes - a goal separated the teams. “The play, owing to the blustery wind, never reached a high standard and it was only during the last quarter of an hour when Hibernians put in a fine effort …that the exchanges were exciting“ (GH). The wind and rain made good play difficult. Hibs made little use of the wind in the first half. It was Thistle who came closest when McFarlane hit the bar from 10 yards. The deadlock was broken when he made up for his earlier miss with a header from a free-kick (65). Soon after this the same player saw his penalty saved. Desperate Hibs' play followed but the Thistle defence stood firm and Hibs made a rather tame exit.
