Match Report

TTA report

Jardine blazed over early on then Rough had a diving save. Whittaker's pass-back almost let in Aberdeen who also hit the post. A 25-yard drive by O'Hara put Thistle 1-up (58) but Aberdeen equalised (66) and when Rough (who had some excellent saves) blundered, Campbell handled and the pen was converted (76).
