Oisin McEntee scored the only goal at Firhill
Partick Thistle missed the chance to go third in the Scottish Championship after Greenock Morton claimed an unlikely win at Firhill.
Alex Jakubiak had an effort saved for Thistle early on and team-mate Kevin Holt scooped a shot over.
Jakubiak was fouled in the box by Alan Lithgow but Brian Graham's penalty was saved by Jack Hamilton.
Morton had been second best but got the winner 10 minutes from the end when Oisin McEntee scored from close range.
The win moves the Greenock side up to sixth, seven points behind Partick, who are a point off fourth but with three games in hand.
Partick Thistle assistant Neil Scally: "We were the better team in large patches of the game. We had a lot of chances. We just weren't clinical enough. Missing the penalty's not great for us and it seemed to give them a wee lift."
Greenock Morton manager Dougie Imrie: "Absolutely thrilled. Conditions weren't great but I thought the boys put in an absolutely tremendous shift. I've got to give massive credit to my goalkeeper. It's a great finish (from Oisin McEntee). After that, we defended really well. Thrilled to get the three points."
