Cowie loses the ball needlessly. Almost punished for his slack play, but Cazorla dinks the ball over McGregor and over the bar. Real let-off for Scotland.

Pedro goes beyond Hutton but slams the shot into the side netting. Legs tiring out there now.

Another chance for Scotland as Mackail-Smith is behind the home defence, but he hesitates and the Spanish defence clear the ball. Scotland have had several chances in this half.

Villa now with 50 goals in 80 appearances for his country. What a return that is. He is back on his feet.
73'
Great piece of defending by Alba. Villa in a spot of bother in the Scotland box. Needing a spot of treatment.

A booking for Goodwillie for illegal use of the high boot. He must be rueing that chance a few moments ago.
