Albiston: The stage is set for Scott

Former Manchester United defender Arthur Albiston believes Scott McTominay will do Scotland proud in the Euro 2024 opener against Germany.

Steve Clarke's men begin the tournament, in the 20:00 BST kick-off in Munich this evening (Friday), looking to upset the odds against the host nation.

McTominay scored seven times in qualifying and has emerged as a key figure for his country, recovering from the knock he sustained in the Emirates FA Cup final against Manchester City to surely start at the Olympiastadion.

And our Academy product is often a man for the big occasion, a point supported by the fact he scored the opening goal in United games against Chelsea, Liverpool and, in the cup semi-final, with Coventry City last season.
