Match Report

TTA report

A goal from Newall wasn't enough to take anything from this match. “Feckless forward finishing by Academicals and Thistle detracted from clever approach work” (GH). However, two of Hamilton's goals were described as “spectacular”. They went 3-up just after half-time before Newall scored (72).
