TTA report

Thistle forced the pace and Kinloch (back after a lengthy injury), Ness and Hair all went close before Celtic took the lead from a corner against the run of play but Gibson scored with a pen just before half-time. The second half was a case of poor Thistle forwards v poor Celtic defenders. Celtic had a man sent off (75).
