Match Report

TTA report

Aberdeen hit the bar (1). Thistle made chances but Johnstone had some magnificent saves as well. Aberdeen controlled things in the second half and goals (47, 61 and 86) were a true reflection on the run of play as Thistle were pinned back. There were some good individual performances however.
