Scotland routs North Macedonia 2-0 for Pocognoli's first win

Scotland beat North Macedonia 2-0 in a Nations League game, with Kieron Bowie and John McGinn scoring.

Scotland dominated North Macedonia from the start, claiming a 2-0 Nations League victory in Skopje. Kieron Bowie rifled in an early goal that settled the match.

John McGinn added a second from the penalty in the second half. Scotland had 25 shots to nine, with ten on target to zero.

The win was coach Sebastien Pocognoli's first since taking the job. Andy Robertson earned his 100th cap for Scotland on the night.

North Macedonia barely threatened except late after Scott McKenna's red card. The victory gives Scotland momentum ahead of a match against Slovenia on Tuesday at Hampden.
