Match Report

TTA report

A bright start by Thistle saw MacKenzie making light of the mud-bath pitch but it was Aberdeen who scored 1st (25). Sharp headed in a half-cleared free-kick (43) to make it 1-1 at half-time. Poor defending led to two quick goals (51 and 54). Thistle rallied, Walker went close but a 4th goal (75) sealed the win. Down to 11th.
