Scotland defeated North Macedonia 2-1 in a UEFA Nations League Group B1 fixture at Hampden Park on Friday, 13 November 2026. John McGinn scored a double, including a penalty, to secure the win for the hosts.
The match saw Scotland booed off at half-time with the score goalless. McGinn opened the scoring, but Elmin Rastoder equalised for North Macedonia. McGinn then converted a penalty after Ben Gannon-Doak was fouled, sealing the three points.
The victory means Scotland can still finish second in Group B1. They will need to win their next match in St Gallen on Monday and hope North Macedonia assists them in their final game. This result also marked head coach Sebastien Pocognoli's first win at Hampden.
