Yep, you read that correctly – Scott McTominay has scored for Scotland against Spain. Twice.
It comes just days after he netted a late brace for his country against Cyprus on Saturday having come on as a late substitute.
As a reward, Steve Clarke awarded the Manchester United midfielder with a start in their next Euro 2024 qualifier, and he didn’t take long to make good of this decision, opening the scoring against Spain on Tuesday after just seven minutes.
He’s at it again 🙌

It’s becoming more and more known that McTominay came through Manchester United’s youth system while playing as a striker. He’s certainly got those goal scoring instincts.
