Nations League Wrap: Scots End Drought, Yamal on Song

Kieron Bowie scored his first Scotland goal and John McGinn added a penalty as the visitors ended a five-match scoring drought.

  • On Saturday, Scotland defeated North Macedonia 2-0 at the National Arena Todor Proeski in Skopje, with defender Andy Robertson earning his 100th international cap for his country.
  • Kieron Bowie scored his first international goal in the seventh minute, while John McGinn added a second-half penalty from 12 yards as Scotland dominated with 13 shots in the opening 45 minutes.
  • Robertson led by example throughout 90 minutes, helping Scotland end a five-game goal drought—their first score since McGinn's goal against Haiti in Boston last June.
  • Manager Pocognoli introduced former Dundee centre-half Luke Graham for his debut, securing Scotland's second clean sheet in three games against North Macedonia.
  • Italy, Belgium, England, and Wales have all failed to prevail at the National Arena Todor Proeski in recent years, making Scotland's victory at the venue particularly significant.
