Match Report

TTA report

A Wright (T) penalty (1) and a fierce low shot by Walker (8) put Thistle 2 up. 2nd top Dundee scored (23) then a Wright header made it 3-1 (36). Dundee, effectively playing with 7 forwards, scored 60, 78 and 79 to stun Thistle but a slick passing move saw Wright get his 3rd (81). A fair result to a thrilling game. Still 10th.
