Match Report

TTA report

Thistle had Hibs pressed back from the start and Sharp scored with a low drive (27) but Hibs finally got into their stride and equalised (33). They had the better of the second half and the winning goal came (66) to give them their 1st win at Firhill since March 1917 (23 attempts). Probably just deserved.
