Match Report

TTA report

Sharp was international class in this match and opened the scoring (12) then with delightful skill set up Howitt (41). Thirds scored (57) then levelled (65) when 3 Thistle defenders left the ball to each other but it was Thistle's night. Sharp's searching passes let in Walker (68 and 75) and Stott hit the post.
