Partick Thistle secure Premier Sports Cup progress as Ian McCall hails 'any means necessary' approach

Partick Thistle are one game away from Hampden after a hard-fought 1-0 win over league rivals Arbroath in the Premier Sports Cup round of 16.

The Jags were looking to move to the quarter-final stage of this competition after a successful group stage campaign saw them qualify from their section that included Premiership side Kilmarnock . They can now look forward to the last eight after Aidan Fitzpatrick's goal sealed a narrow win against Dick Campbell's men.

Aberdeen, Dundee and Rangers are already in the draw with teams such as Celtic, Dundee United Motherwell and Hearts looking to join them ahead of tonight's selections. McCall says it was a tale of missed chances at Firhill but he was just relieved to see his team progress after a good late save from keeper David Mitchell.
