    Like the rest of us, Michael Stewart appears to be reacting to everything with animal-like noises.

    We're ending the season in style, troops.

    What a game.

    Can say that again, Mikey.

    We're going to extra time. I need a deep breath.

    I'm struggling to type. This is incredible!

    Josh Sims' cross somehow hits the bar. The ball comes back in before being knocked across and Simon Murray skies a golden chance.

    Not yet. Keith Watson has a pop but it's a comfortable save for David Mitchell.

    Think we're going to be able to get a brief breather.

    The clock hits 98. Is there another moment here?

    I now seem to be making noises at things.

    A Thistle player, don't even know who it was, leathers the ball goalwards. Looks to be a certain goal but it's blocked.

    Thistle have actually reacted well to County's third.

    They come forward again and have a corner. Surely not? Surely?

    The looks on the faces of those Thistle fans. They look beaten.

    This game we love can be so, so cruel. But it isn't over for them. Not by a long way.

    They were dead and buried, I couldn't see how they were coming back from it.

    But Ross County have just been riding the wave since the penalty that kickstarted the comeback.

    Eh, it's actually nine minutes that's been added.

    Five of them are left. Anyone fancy a winner or another half hour of this?

    Scottish football. Wouldn't swap it for anything else.

    Wow, just wow.

    Ross County are now the favourites, aren't they?

    GOAL! Ross County 3-1 Partick Thistle (agg 3-3)published at 18:22 British Summer Time 4 June 2023

    George Harmon

    Ohhhh myy daaaays!

    Yan Dhanda is at the bye-line. He picks out George Harmon at the back post. He's in arces of space. Under that pressure, what a finish!

    The County substitute side foots a superb volley into the far corner via a kiss off the post.

    An extra TEN minutes could be on the way.

    Personally, I want another 90 of this. Thistle fans certainly won't agree...

    Don't know how, but Kris Doolan looks relatively chilled in the dugout.
