After only one friendly in 56 days, lack of competitive match practice took its toll. McAdam gave Thistle the lead after a defensive blunder (5) but Morton equalised (11) when Thistle failed to clear a loose ball. A brilliant Ritchie free-kick round the wall left Rough motionless (30) but Houston deservedly levelled (68).
