Man Utd midfielder McTominay: Scotland can learn from Holland thrashing

Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay insists Scotland's thrashing by Holland can be good for them.

Scotland face Northern Ireland tonight having lost 4-0 in Holland last week.

McTominay said: “It is not necessarily a bad thing.

“The 4-0 result was a little bit of an injustice.

“You can get complacent, too excited, ahead of yourself if you take your foot off the gas and sometimes a little kick in the teeth isn't the worst thing in the world, to get everyone back to the standards that we know that we are accountable for."
