Match Report

TTA report

“A game of indifferent forward play“ (GH). Rangers took the lead (15) then proceeded to waste chances. The first half was cornerless. Thistle rallied and made a number of chances then Henderson saved a pen. With the clock running down they were still in it but 2 goals (86 and 89) flattered unconvincing Rangers.
