Hearts Women off the foot of the table; Spartans held
Yesterday's triumph at Petershill Park was just the Jambos second win off the season as they leapfrogged Hamilton Accies, who drop to the foot of the division.
The visitors edged in front through Eilidh Begg's cross-cum shot but Thistle quickly restored parity when Rebecca McGowan netted.

But Hearts were only behind a matter of minutes, Maria McAneny's wonderful free-kick finding the top left-hand corner and it got better with just five minutes remaining when Georgia Hunter pulled down Claire Delworth's corner in the box and smashed the ball high into the net.
Meanwhile, Spartans drew 2-2 with Hamilton Accies at the Fountain of Youth Stadium.
Debbi McCulloch's side twice had to come from behind to seal a point, Rosie McQuillan and Sarah Clelland on target for the Capital side in South Lanarkshire. Spartans stay seventh.
