Scotland saddles group favorite Spain with a surprising defeat in the European Championship qualifying round | European Championship qualification 2024

With no Barcelona player and only one Real Madrid pawn in the Spanish starting line-up, a Manchester United player could claim the limelight. But he did play for Scotland.

Scott McTominay, who already scored two goals against Cyprus in the first European Championship qualifier last week, was also at the appointment against Spain.

The midfielder was able to open the score after 7 minutes after Pedro Porro lost the ball. Spain could even be happy that a double deficit did not immediately follow.

Spain countered with Joselu, who was still the star against Norway as a substitute, but scoring was not possible for the oldest debutant.

After the break, Scotland were able to fully take the victory. With luck, the ball fell at the feet of McTominay, who aimed into the left corner. Scotland take the lead in Group A with their first win since 1984 against Spain.
