Thistle were no match for City with their international players. They trailed 2-0 at half-time and a 3rd after 7 minutes of the second half killed them off. 2 late goals (pen, 77 and 80) flattered City. It turned towsy late on and there were 5 bookings. A disgraceful tackle by Summerbee on Anderson put him out for months.
