- Scotland secured a 2-0 victory over Belarus in a 2026 World Cup qualifier held behind closed doors in Zalaegerszeg, Hungary.
- Che Adams scored Scotland's opener just before half-time, and Belarus defender Zakhar Volkov netted an own goal in the 65th minute.
- The match was played at a neutral venue without spectators due to UEFA sanctions against Belarus for their support of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
- This crucial win gives Scotland four points from their first two away qualifiers, placing them second in Group C, level on points with leaders Denmark.
- The result puts Scotland in a promising position for World Cup qualification, aiming for their first appearance since 1998.
