Match Report

TTA report

A poor, tame game saw the first half belong to Celtic. They scored (12) then it was largely Thistle wasting chances until half-time. After the break they took the game to Celtic and Grove deservedly equalised (60). Celtic scored with a fine shot (71) then Hair missed a late sitter. Thistle finished 11th.
