Match Report

TTA report

“Celts batter in vain” (SP). Thistle were the better team in the first half and deserved their lead at half-time (Newall, 29). Celtic improved around the hour mark with almost constant pressure. The Thistle defence was magnificent but was beaten once when Sutherland handled to give Celtic a pen (70).
