Match Report

TTA report

Motherwell took an early lead but Newall equalised (11). The game was lively and entertaining at first but faded towards the end. Motherwell scored again 3 minutes into the second half and 2 points looked to be on the cards until Candlin's cute header 13 minutes from time earned Thistle a point. Henderson was outstanding.
