BBC Scotland at Stark's ParkWhat on earth is going on?
Blair Alston has the freedom of Kirkcaldy to burst in, unmarked, and slam home.
Goodness gracious me. The Championship, eh?

Blair Alston
Oh my word, I can't keep up!
A lovely header from Harry Milne as he gets up above his defender and lays it off beautifully Blair Alston, who slides it into the back of the net to put Thistle into the lead.

Oh my...
Well we have a game on our hands.
Kerr McInroy floats in the free-kick and there's not a lot Dan O'Reilly can do as the ball ricochets into the net.

Partick Thistle have a free kick in a really promising area.
Blair Alston steps up and tries the shot. He goes close but it was just too high and Raith get the goal kick.

Former Scotland forward on BBC ScotlandEverything Kris Doolan said at half-time has gone straight out of the window. Sneddon's got no chance. It's brilliant again from Dylan Easton.

BBC Scotland at Stark's ParkThat epitomises Raith Rovers under Ian Murray!
It's all about the pressure they impose on the Thistle backline and then Dylan Easton... that's the kind of situation he dreams of. Dribble and drive.
Some start.

That was quick....
Dylan Easton takes the shot from just outside the box and fires it past all the bodies in the box and the diving Thistle goalkeeper, Jamie Sneddon.
The visitors have it all to do now.
