Match Report

TTA report

Fine goalkeeping by Johnstone restricted unbeaten Rangers to one goal at half-time but they extended the lead (52). Under strength Thistle fought back with goals from Wallace and the outstanding McKennan. Rangers were down to 10 men by then and it could have gone either way after that.
