Scotland beat FYR Macedonia 2-1 at Hampden Park Stadium after John McGinn scored twice, including the 74th-minute penalty that settled it. The sides were level at the break, and Scotland found the decisive goal after the interval.
The first half finished 0-0.
McGinn opened the scoring in the 54th minute from Che Adams's assist, and Elmin Rastoder equalised three minutes later from Enis Bardhi's pass. Scotland then regained the lead when VAR confirmed a penalty for Ben Gannon-Doak on 72 minutes, and McGinn converted it on 74 minutes for his second of the match and a 2-1 lead. Scotland made two changes on 76 minutes, while FYR Macedonia had already made two on 64 minutes and added two more on 78 minutes as they tried to respond, but the home side kept the advantage to the end.
