Inverness hold off Partick Thistle comeback to go top

Inverness moved top of the Ladbrokes Championship with a 3-2 win against Partick Thistle.

The home side scored three times in the opening 32 minutes to extend their unbeaten start to the league campaign to five games.

Jordan White’s first goal for the club gave Inverness the lead after 11 minutes. He converted the rebound after Cammy Bell tipped Liam Polworth’s shot on to the frame of the goal.

Shaun Rooney scored from close range 12 minutes later after the visitors failed to clear a corner and Sean Walsh made it 3-0 from the spot after Brice Ntambwe brought down Polworth in the penalty area.

Partick missed a spot-kick of their own four minutes before the break as Miles Storey saw his effort saved by Mark Ridgers.

They pulled one back through Blair Spittal with eight minutes left and Kris Doolan added a second in added time, but Inverness had done enough to secure top spot.
