Shane Sutherland finishes to give Inverness a 2-1 lead

Leaders Inverness Caledonian Thistle came from behind to beat Partick Thistle and maintain their 100% start in the Scottish Championship.

Scott Tiffoney fired the Glasgow side in front after 17 minutes, but Kirk Broadfoot grabbed his first goal for Inverness to level early in the second half.

Shane Sutherland and Aaron Doran scored within three minutes of each other to give Inverness victory.

They lead Kilmarnock by three points.

Partick Thistle, meanwhile, drop to fourth place having won three and lost two of their five matches.

Inverness CT head coach Billy Dodds: "I thought our second half performance was tremendous - really top drawer. I was calm at half-time and asked them to believe in themselves and for intensity as well. It was our biggest test and they produced."

Partick Thistle manager Ian McCall: "We probably should have been two up but we missed a couple of good chances and made a couple of mistakes in the second half and that really changed the complexion of the game. We have got to try and stay in that top four all season and we are very determined to do that."
