Scotland 3 – 0 Cyprus

Scotland’s bid to qualify for Euro 2024 got off to a winning start a John McGinn strike and Scott McTominay double earned a 3-0 win over Cyprus at Hampden Park.

The Aston Villa midfielder fired in from Andrew Robertson’s deflected cross in the first half to secure the victory in their Group A opener.

McTominay, who had a shot blocked minutes after coming off the bench, smashed the ball into the roof of the net late on to secure the three points.

The Manchester United man then added another in added time to wrap up a comfortable afternoon against the visitors, who managed just one shot on target.
