Sott McTominay alone is not enough to help Scotland win their first victory at EURO 2024.

After a 5-1 defeat to Germany, Scotland clearly needed to play more determinedly if they wanted to advance to EURO 2024. That’s why, right from the first moments against Switzerland, coach Steve’s students Clarke proactively pushed the attacking squad higher.

Scotland soon got what they needed when Scott McTominay scored. The MU star had a decisive left foot kick to open the score.

But their lead did not last long. Specifically, Xherdan Shaqiri took full advantage of a mistake from the Soctland defense to score a beautiful goal to equalize for Switzerland.

Both teams played “tit for tat” throughout the rest, but neither team scored any more goals. This clearly puts Scotland at a disadvantage in the penultimate round against Hungary.

To be fair, Scott McTominay is the star who plays the hardest on the Scottish side. The MU mainstay was present in every hot spot on the field, taking 4 shots, launching 3 successful crosses, clearing the ball 3 times, 2 decisive passes and winning 2 aerial duels.

However, Merson could not understand why the 27-year-old, famous for his physicality and aerial ability, was taking corners and not Billy Gilmour. The former Arsenal and England star shared: “Scott McTominay is 1m93 tall, takes corner kicks, while Billy Gilmour is 1m7 tall, stays in the penalty area.”

Remember, Scotland have plenty of players who cover set pieces for their clubs, notably Brighton’s Gilmour, Liverpool’s Andy Robertson and Aston Villa’s John McGinn.
