Match Preview

Partick Thistle WFC v Aberdeen WFC – 5th March 2023

This Sunday 5th March, PTWFC take on Aberdeen at Petershill Park for a 13:00 kick off.  Entry is FREE for all.

Thistle come off the back of a 5-0 defeat against Rangers in the SWPL1. The girls put in an inspiring performance against the Gers, one that was reflected harshly against the scoreline, as we look to take positives from that game and use them against Aberdeen on Sunday.

A result here for Brian Graham’s side would be massive as we look to move back into the top 6 and solidify our ambitions.

Highlights and reaction post match

Our Opponents: Aberdeen

Aberdeen have had a tough season thus far, picking up 15 points so far in the SWPL1 from a possible 60.

Sitting in 10th position, 3 places and 10 points below the jags, they’ll be looking to grab all three points when they make the trip having gained some confidence following their draw with Hibernian mid-week.

The previous match between the clubs ended in a 2-2 draw in Aberdeen in what was a good showing for the Jags as the team started to gel together at the beginning of the season.

Thistle so far

The high scoring defeat against Rangers was tough yet plenty of positives were to be seen from the jags. They went out there and put in a great performance from the start of the match till the final whistle. Facing a team that had only conceded 5 goals thus far, Thistle made a real effort to thwart the Rangers backline and were unlucky to not get on the scoresheet. Some early penalty drama followed by two very early substitutions due to injury meant that it was always going to be an uphill battle, yet the girls did themselves proud.

Brian Graham spoke about this at the end of the game, highlighting just how pleased he was with his squad. He had a lot of praise for Abbie Ferguson, who continues to improve during her loan spell from Celtic, as well as Claire Adams, who was subbed on early in the first half having just returned following a spell on the sidelines. He couldn’t have asked for more from his team and they made him proud.

Strong followings from the Red and Yellow Army so far this season have really helped our girls, and there’s not a time more important for the Thistle faithful to come along and support their Jags.Your support could really make the difference in the push for top six. There is free entry for everyone on Sunday and we want to have as many fans in the park as we can. Let’s fill Petershill.

Team News

After the tough game on Wednesday, our management team have a tough task ahead of them to select the top squad come Sunday. Rebecca McGowan and Cheryl McCulloch were both forced into early substitutions on Wednesday therefore both look like doubts for this fixture.

Megan Cunningham has returned following her emergency 7-day recall by Rangers last week and is raring to go for this fixture. With that being said, it is now up to our girls to put on a performance to be proud of and hopefully get back into the top-6.

Match Report

Partick Thistle WFC v Aberdeen WFC – 5th March 2023

Partick Thistle took a huge step towards a top-six SWPL 1 finish in a thrilling 4-3 come from behind victory over Aberdeen at Petershill Park in their penultimate pre-split fixture.

Thanks to a free to attend scheme, a packed crowd of 221 backed the Jags to victory. The result means Brian Graham’s side only need a positive result in their final fixture before the split to be sure of a top-six spot.

After a back and forth opening spell, it was the Dons who took the lead in the 17th minute as Bayley Hutchison got onto the end of a long ball, beating an offside trap in the process to shoot the ball high into the net past Megan Cunningham. The visitors were nearly caught off guard minutes later when Linzi Taylor blocked keeper Annalisa McCann’s clearance, but the stopper was quickest to pounce on the ball.

On the half hour mark, captain Demi Falconer played an excellent long ball to Abbie Ferguson, who made a brilliant touch inside the box, but it was cleared behind by an Aberdeen defender before she could get a shot away. From the ensuing corner, the Dons defence failed to clear, allowing Falconer this time to have a shot, which McCann did well to turn over.

Thistle continued to press for an equaliser before the break and came close as Jordan McLintock’s shot from the edge of the box rattled the crossbar, with ‘s rebound going narrowly wide.

Thistle started the second half roaring as McCann was forced to punch away Cara Henderson’s free kick, from which Clare Docherty played a ball into the box for Falconer, who could only drag her shot wide.

The visitors, who had been threatening on the break the whole game, doubled their lead in the 52nd minute as Bailley Collins’ pass found Mya Christie in the box, who made no mistake disposing the ball into the net.

However, Thistle were given a huge boost moments later as Aberdeen were reduced to ten as Millie Urquhart brought Ferguson down on the edge of the box as she raced clear and looked certain to score. Linzi Taylor stepped up and scored from the ensuing free kick.

Kim Murphy then made an excellent block to deny Collins from the edge of the box, with the defender requiring treatment on the field before being able to continue.

On 63 minutes, Thistle got their deserved equaliser as Henderson rose highest in the box to meet Murphy’s cross with McCann’s outstretched hand only being able to guide her header into the net.

After 72 minutes Thistle took the lead as substitute Claire Adams swung an inviting corner into the box before it took a touch off an Aberdeen defender and into the net..

Thistle didn’t stop in the search of goals to really put the game out of sight as Taylor’s long range effort was turned away by McCann, who later denied her again at the near post. And they were rewarded as time wound down as sub Imogen Longcake capitalised on an errant back pass, rounding the keeper and passing the ball into the empty net,

There was stil time for some late drama with the Dons grabbing a controversial consolation goal through Francesca Ogilvie to provide a nervy finish.

Thistle can stamp their ticket to the top-six with a victory next Sunday as they next travel to face Dundee United. That game takes place at Gussie Park next Sunday 12th March, with a 4.10pm kick off.
