Match Report

TTA report

Non-league Nithsdale had Thistle rattled early on and matched them for almost an hour. Ness headed in a Salisbury cross (22) against the run of play. Once McDougall got the 2nd (a defender helping the ball over the line, 55) the tie was safe. Both players scored again in quick succession to make sure.
