Match Report

TTA report

Duffy and McParland ran the show and a McBride pen (3) opened the scoring then Hibs equalised (21). Ewing tapped in a low cross (31) then Smith latched on to a long pass, rode a sliding tackle and slotted home (51). Hibs got back into it (64) but Thistle's “more studied methods” (GH) deserved the hard win.
