Match Report

TTA report

Another missed penalty (this time by Husband who shot yards wide) cost Thistle the lead (60) and 7 minutes later slack marking from a cross led to Hibs scoring the winner. Yet again Thistle relied to much on McKennan who became a one-man attack but he was snuffed out of the game. Hibs deserved the win.
