Debutant Dylan Stephenson earns Hamilton shock victory at Partick Thistle

Hamilton breathed further life into their Scottish Championship survival bid with a shock 1-0 victory at play-off chasing Partick Thistle.

Dylan Stephenson scored just eight minutes after coming on for his debut following his loan move from Newcastle, keeping Accies four points behind second-bottom Arbroath after a second consecutive win.

Danny Mullen headed wide for Partick in a first half of few chances.

Stephenson was brought on at half-time and he slotted home in the 53rd minute to give Hamilton, who had lost their last six away league games, the lead against the run of play.
