Brough did well to tip a shot over the bar (5) then he had to come off his line quickly to prevent a scoring chance. Nervous Thistle went behind when a sweeping move opened up the defence (15). They got into the game but it took a 20-yard free-kick by Donnelly (J) (88) to earn the point that meant relegation was avoided.
