Pinned back in defence for the first 43 minutes by Kilmarnock (who scored, 23), 2 quick goals from Williamson (from a McParland cross, 44) and Duffy (benefiting from slack defending, 45) earned Thistle the points. Niven and Harvey were outstanding and a tight defence repelled Kilmarnock in the second half.
