Match Report

TTA report

Thistle were back to full-strength and got off a positive start. They matched Rangers for over an hour then 2 goals (76 and 83, “a nicely timed header“ (DR)) saw them through to meet Third Lanark in the final. Henderson was in magnificent form and an early diving save was one of the best seen at Firhill for years.
