Match Report

TTA report

A brave and gutsy performance after going 1-down to a pen (foul, 5). Stirling's next shot on target was 68 minutes later as Thistle dominated. Strachan hit the post, Smyth shot home set up by Roberts (46) and he also hit the post. Craig headed in from a corner (80). All 3 points confirmed a play-off place.

Albion went into the lead after five minutes when Chris Aitken scored from the penalty spot. The visitors equalised in the first minute of the second half when Marc Smyth drilled home from 18 yards. Thistle hit the woodwork twice and missed a number of chances before David Craig had the final say, heading home from close range.
