Match Report

TTA report

In atrocious conditions Thistle trailed when a long free-kick hit a Rangers player and deceived Jackson (10). Chances to level were wasted then when a shot came back into play after hitting the roof of the net, Thistle claimed it had hit the bar (63). Gibson's header near the end was too late.
