Partick Thistle Airdrieonians William Hill Premiership

Partick Thistle reach play-off semi-final

Brian Graham’s double secured a 2-1 second leg victory

Partick Thistle reached the cinch Premiership play-off semi-finals after defeating Airdrieonians 2-1 at Firhill (4-3 on aggregate).

After a 2-2 draw in Tuesday's first leg, Thistle skipper Brian Graham scored either side of half-time to ensure Kris Doolan’s men remain in the promotion hunt.

Arron Lyall pulled one back for Airdrieonians but despite hitting the crossbar late on, they couldn’t find the equaliser which would have taken the tie to extra time.

Thistle will face Raith Rovers over two legs for the chance to face the 11th place side in the cinch Premiership.

The first leg takes place at Firhill on Tuesday before the return leg in Fife on Friday.
