Match Report

TTA report

Hibs were much more in control than the score suggests. Thistle equalised with their 1st shot at goal early in the second half through Hair. Calderwood and Neil both went off injured for 10 minutes and a weakened team in the second half wasn't up to it. They went 3-1 down before Hair got his 2nd (89).
