90’+03’

What a save Conor Cullen to deny a Saints goal. Volleyed towards goal.

Mis-control from Stokes brings a Jags attack to a halt.

 
78’

Thistle scramble clear as St Johnstone push for an equaliser.

 
77’

A great save from Cullen to deny Hurst after Thistle failed to clear their lines. A tremendous point blank save.

Nisbet stabs the corner goalwards, MacKenzie spills but it just will not fall for McLaughlin to smash home the rebound

65’

Thistle attack again but McLaughlin's effort is blocked.

63’Thistle Booking - Callum Wilson
 
62’

Thistle well on top but needing a killer third goal. McInally advances down the right and crosses after a while but St Johnstone hack clear

 
59’

McMullin glances a header wide from a corner

59’Thistle corner from the left
 
58’

I can't really explain what happened there. Penrice down the left, plays it to Lamont. He crosses. It is deep. It somehow goes back into the six yard box. It reaches James Stokes. Somehow he connects and sends it across the face of goal but not into the net. How it is not a goal I am not sure

 
53’

Thomson clears from the line as Stokes throws himself at a low Penrice cut back

52’St Johnstone U20 corner from the left

An excellent tackle denies Johnson before Simpson has an effort deflected wide for a corner.

50’Goal Thistle! James Stokes
St Johnstone U20 1 - Thistle 2

Thistle lead once again!

A break finds McLaughlin on the left. He passes inside to Lamont who is crowded out, he slides it wide to James Stokes who fires beyond the goalkeeper.

 
47’

McLaren drags an effort straight at Cullen

45’St Johnstone U20 substitution: Cameron Lumsden replaces Greg Page

41’

Stokes gets to the bye line and whips over a great cross but there are no Thistle heads to send it goalward

39’Goal St Johnstone U20! Paul Simpson
St Johnstone U20 1 - Thistle 1

St Johnstone have been well on top for the last ten minutes and Simpson slams home from 10 yards out after Thistle fail to clear a cross.

 
37’

Somehow Thistle are still in the lead as the ball gets cleared off the line twice.

Cullen is down injured and the referee brings proceedings to a halt, much to the anger of St Johnstone

36’St Johnstone U20 corner from the right
 
31’

Page smashes a shot at goal which Cullen clutches at the second attempt.

 
30’

McMullin's free kick is almost met by the untracked run of Callum Wilson. A toe on that and it would surely be 2-0

 
29’

A well worked corner is nodded back across goal but Page can only send his header at Cullen

28’St Johnstone U20 corner from the left
28’St Johnstone U20 corner from the left

A great instinctive block from Cullen denies Johnson as he charged through one on one.

 
27’

Loud appeals, mainly from the St Johnstone bench, for a penalty as Hurst flops to the ground inside the box.

 
26’

Hurst slips as he takes a free kick sending it high into an empty stand.

It's one the St Johnstone man will want to forget, but as we're Thistle orientated we're going to make sure everyone knows about it.

 
24’

Loud appeals for a penalty as James Stokes races onto a low through ball. The referee is unmoved and it did seem, from our angle, a good challenge.

 
22’

Docherty sprays the ball wide to Ian Stokes but his cross is poor and the goalkeeper is able to claim

 
19’

Kerr as a free header from a St Johnstone free kick but he can't get enough on the header to trouble Cullen.

 
18’

Cullen parries a low effort from Hurst before falling on the ball at the second attempt.

 
16’

St Johnstone coming back into the game but McMullin nods a cross back to Cullen

13’Goal Thistle! James Penrice
St Johnstone U20 0 - Thistle 1

Thistle lead and it's well deserved!

Callum Wilson works well to send the ball into the six yard box. McLaughlin and Penrice meet the ball from close range and Penrice stabs it home.

 
07’

Penrice cuts into the St Johnstone box, has a shot but it is blocked by a home defender. Lamont's follow up effort is cleared by the home defence.

04’St Johnstone U20 corner from the left
 
01’

St Johnstone have an early set piece, whipping over a free kick which McMullin clears. Thistle shooting into a strong sunny traditional away end at McDiarmid Park.
