GLASGOW (Reuters) – Scotland began their Nations League campaign with a 2-0 win over Armenia on Wednesday as Anthony Ralston and Scott McKenna scored their first international goals.
Scotland dominated the game and took the lead through Ralston when he made a run to the far post where the wing back — making his full debut — connected with Stuart Armstrong’s cross to head the ball across goal and into the net.
Defender Scott McKenna struck five minutes before halftime with a towering header from John McGinn’s corner and he also had an effort from point-blank range ruled out by VAR for an offside in the build-up.
Scotland moved on to three points in Group 1 of League B — the same as Armenia and Ukraine, who beat Ireland in Dublin.
