'Best player in the world' - Manchester United sent Scott McTominay message after another Scotland goal

Scott McTominay was on the scoresheet for Scotland again yesterday and Manchester United fans were loving it.

Scotland continued their incredible push for a place at the 2024 European Championships with a comfortable 3-0 win at Cyprus. Steve Clarke's side now have 15 points from five games and are favourites to progress.

McTominay opened the scoring on the night at the AEK Arena, heading home from close range after just six minutes. The United midfielder also got an assist, laying off to John McGinn to make it 3-0 after Ryan Porteous had scored.
