Match Report

TTA report

A poor game with little for the crowd to enthuse over. Until the 65th minute Thistle had been the more aggressive team but a misplaced pass back by Candlin led to Motherwell's opener then a brilliant individual effort (70) put the game beyond Thistle but they remained 3rd, 11 points behind Hibs.
