TTA report

“A fast and interesting game“ (SC). A poor clearance by Campbell set up Hearts' opener but Coham scored direct from a corner (keeper assisted). It could have gone either way in the second half. The teams attacked in turn but it was Hearts who scored to leapfrog Thistle into 4th place on goal average.
