Match Report

TTA report

Falkirk had already hit the bar before taking the lead with a header from a corner (15) but McGeachy scrambled the ball home (29). A “rasping drive” (SP) (35) won the points. Husband smashed the crossbar with a free-kick but poor finishing cost Thistle despite having most of the play after half-time.
