St Mirren Defeat Partick Thistle to Keep Premiership Spot

St Mirren defeated Partick Thistle in the second leg of the Scottish Premiership play‑off final at St Mirren Park. The win preserved St Mirren’s place in the Scottish Premiership for the coming season.

St Mirren entered the tie as Scottish League Cup holders. The match was described as tense and cagey.

Partick Thistle were seeking promotion to the top tier. Their failure means they remain outside the Premiership.

Callum McFadden reported from St Mirren Park.

St Mirren will now focus on retaining their Premiership status in the next campaign. Partick Thistle will look to rebuild for a future promotion challenge.
