Neither team could qualify and it was a low-key affair. Thistle scored with their 1st attack when Somner was given a gift by a defender and shot home (12) and he went close twice before half-time. Sub Joe Craig turned and fired home a Hansen pass (81) to leave Motherwell still looking for their 1st win.

From the early pioneers when international football first started in 1872 through to the current FIFA list, “Scotland's International Football Referees” commemorates their careers and is a tribute to their achievements.
