Match Report

TTA report

Rangers scored (29, 40, 60 and 88) for an easy win but Thistle were unlucky - especially in the first half. The ball was kicked out of Johnstone's hand and he played with a broken bone for more than half the match. The 2nd goal was yards off-side. The young forwards missed too many chances early on.
