Walker and MacKenzie went close then Airdrie hit the post, wasted several chances and missed a penalty before MacKenzie gave Thistle a fortunate 1-0 lead at half-time. Airdrie's No 7 broke his leg but 10-man Airdrie made it 1-1 (48). Scrappy play followed until McCallum scored twice in the last 10 minutes.
