Match Report

TTA report

Thistle hit back after going behind to an excellent goal (5) when unmarked Wyllie (G) headed in an Elliott free-kick (7). Rangers' skill and strength were too much for Thistle. They were well beaten long before the 3rd goal (64). Wyllie (G) went close several times but the defence did well to keep it at 3.
