Harry Milne wins Thistle a corner.

This would be one way to stop the frustration...

We saw a couple of moments of frustration from Thistle, you can see it bubbling away.

They're going to have to channel that frustration in the right way.

Ohhhhhh that was close y'know.

Brave play from the visitors to knock it about in a tight space, allowing Aidan Connolly to line one up.

His curling effort initially looks wayward, but drops just enough to leave Thistle hearts in mouths. Great move.

Nope. It's far too deep and easily cleared.

Rovers corner. Can Kyle Turner ping in another?

The loudest the home fans have been all night, and it's to boo Kevin Dabrowski for what they see as time-wasting.

Classic.

A Thistle attack just trundles out the park.

They look a shadow of the side that were turning the screw for a period in the first half.

I have an element of sympathy for the goalkeeper because of the pitch, but still, he's fortunate to get away with one there.

Jack Hamilton's first touch just lets him down.

Oh dear, that early goal was nearly born out of complete calamity.

David Mitchell kicks a bobbling ball right at Jack Hamilton.

To be fair to him, the goalkeeper responds well and pounces on a heavy touch.

Quick start from Raith as they push forward.

Last thing this subdued crowd at Firhill needs is an early goal in this second period.

And off we go again.

Let's hope for an extra gear from the first period.

This guy is showing the quality we saw from him at Firhill last season.

Thistle fans know exactly what Kyle Turner can do. His brilliant assist this evening has been seen before around these parts.

I see you ask where did that Rovers goal come from, Sean.

And while I agree it was against the run of play, I had a cracking view of Jack Hamilton’s - albeit weak - header.

That was a proper chance, it was just in slow motion.

Partick Thistle have had the best of the chances.

I think they've been better when Scott Robinson is close to Brian Graham, rather than being out on the left.

Partick Thistle will be frustrated that they've gone into the break behind, but that's what happens when you don't take your chances.

Thistle had the best of the chances, but it's the title contenders who struck first.

Former Jag Kyle Turner's excellent delivery was turned home by defender Euan Murray to give Raith Rovers the lead.

The home side will need to find their shooting boots if they're to respond in the second period.

A glimpse of the end-to-end contest we promised.

Aidan Connolly is slipped in one end before being crowded out, before a slick move fires Thistle away.

Jack McMillan's cross is just about caught by Kevin Dabrowski.

Partick Thistle not finding the same joy from their dead-ball situations.

Easily mopped up by the Fife side.
