Partick Thistle 0 - 1 Falkirk

Falkirk booked their place in the third round of the Co-operative Insurance Cup with victory over Partick Thistle.

Simon Donnelly came closest to giving Partick the lead in a first half of few chances at Firhill.

The Bairns broke the deadlock just before the hour mark courtesy of man of the match Ryan Flynn.

The midfielder capped an impressive display when he drilled the ball beyond the helpless Bryn Halliwell to secure victory for the visitors.
