John McGinn ended Scotland's long wait for a victory with a decisive goal in the Nations League match against Croatia. It had been a frustrating 17 months since Scotland last celebrated a win at Hampden Park, following their triumph over Georgia. During this period, the team managed only one victory in 16 matches, making McGinn's late strike all the more significant as it came against a Croatia side reduced to 10 men. While McGinn's goal secured the points, it was also a night to remember for 19-year-old Ben Doak, who made a notable impact on the international stage. His performance captured the attention of the Tartan Army, and manager Steve Clarke expressed his approval, saying, “He was good. I thought he might be.”
