Thistle had the bulk of the pressure but a strong defensive display kept them out. Poor finishing when they did threaten didn't help. After a bright start by 'Muir, Smith took control of the midfield but the hosts were dangerous on the break. Nonetheless it shouldn't have finished goalless. Wasteful Thistle forwards.
