St Johnstone boss Tommy Wright has labelled David Wotherspoon a "dream" player following the 1-0 win against Partick Thistle on Tuesday.

Wotherspoon was the architect for the goal, finding Stevie May in the box.

"David Wotherspoon has been a dream for us this season as he can play in so many positions - either on the right, in off the left or behind the striker," Wright told Sky Sports News.

"He had a shot by drifting off the left just before he created our goal that was close. I'm really pleased with him and it was a great assist for Stevie, who tucked it away nicely.

"I'm pleased with our night's work. The players showed great character."

St Johnstone are sixth in the league with 29 points.
