Match Report

TTA report

A dull game was livened up by the performance of both goalkeepers. Honours were even in the first half. Although Melrose looked lively, Thistle went into their shell after half-time and decided to settle for a point. Rough had some fine saves as Thistle conceded corner after corner but they held out.
