TTA report

A gallant draw. O'Donnell was injured and Thistle played for 75 minutes with 10 men. Motherwell's good start faded but they took the lead (43). Walker moved to the centre and with MacKenzie back to his best, the equaliser came when he hoodwinked several defenders and “placed perfectly” (SP) (69).
