In the first leg, Scotland defeated Spain 2-0 thanks to McTominay’s double. In the rematch in Madrid on the morning of October 13, the Man Utd midfielder continued to have an impressive match and almost became a hero.
In the 60th minute, McTominay made an extremely uncomfortable free kick at a narrow angle and hit the Spanish net. However, the referee did not recognize the goal, making Soctland regretful.
After checking VAR technology, the referee determined that Scottish team player Jack Hendry had fouled goalkeeper Unai. Simon on the Spanish side.
After McTominay’s goal was not recognized, Spain took the lead. Substitute Jesus Navas crossed the ball very awkwardly, allowing Alvaro Morata to cut in and head the ball into the Scotland net in the 73rd minute.
