Match Report

TTA report

Under-strength Ayr took an early lead (20) when they broke up field after a Thistle corner. The excellent Lambie equalised “with a deceiving shot” (SC) following a fine build-up (30) but just on half-time Thistle found themselves a goal behind. There was nothing between the teams in the second half but it remained 2-1.
