Kick-Off

13th Minute

Hungary have started well creating chances through Kerkez and Sallai, but Angus Gunn is currently standing on the Ball looking for an option and finds a short pass to McKenna who takes a touch and plays it just in-front of Robertson which allows Robertson to drop one in behind for Nick to chase and chase he does as he beats Botka in a foot race and drives on further and into the Box then cutting it back for McTominay to follow in and slide into the net making it 1-0 

36th Minute

Hungary have looked more shaky since the Goal which has allowed Scotland's Midfield to take control of the Tempo, McGregor is on the Ball as he turns away from Szoboszlai and drives forward picking out McGinn who plays a wonderful first time pass round the corner for the overlapping Ralston who takes a delightful first touch to push it in front of him and then deliver Pin-Point Cross to the front post which the arriving Nick flicks on which is nodded in by Robertson at the Back Post making it 2-0
