    The jeers and whistle ring around the stadium at the full time whistle. This isn't what the Albanian fans wanted, but what a result for McLeish and Scotland! That's the win they needed and now they must beat Israel if they are to finish top of their Nations League group. What a win and performance.

    Next up for Scotland is that crunch match against Israel at Hampden Park on Tuesday night. Another win is required for Scotland to finish top of their Nations League group.
    91'
    The tempo and intensity has completely dropped out of this game in the past few minutes. That's hardly surprising. This match has been over as a contest for a long time.

    Just three minutes of stoppage time to be played at the end of the match.

    McGregor is another player who has turned up for Scotland this evening. All in all, this has been an impressive performance from the Dark Blues on a night they needed a win.

    Grezda enters the book after a late tackle on McTominay. He's frustrated. Albania's best player tonight.

    Ole! Ole! Ole! The travelling Scotland fans are now enjoying themselves as their team see this game out with aplomb. They are in complete control. This has been comprehensive.
    85'
    Christie, Forrest and Fraser have all been exceptional for Scotland tonight, with all three players in great form for their clubs. That has been demanded of Scotland teams for years - play the in-form players!
    84'
    Scotland are now toying with their opponents, spraying the passes around the centre of the pitch. They could still add a couple to the scoreline, though. Forrest wants another.
    83'
    This could be the end for Panucci as the Albania national team manager. The former Italian international was already under pressure before this game, which has been a disaster.

    The official record has it that Phillips was booked, but it looked like Russell.

    What a cross! Robertson sends a bending delivery to the back post for Phillips to get on the end of, he manages to get a shot on target, but the shot is blocked at the near post.

    McTominay should score! That should have been a fifth goal for Scotland. The cut back found McTominay, via a dummy from Christie, but his shot clips the top of the crossbar.
    78'
    One concern for Scotland at this late stage of the game, with the points already secured, is staying clear of any injuries or suspensions. They need a full squad for the Israel game.

    As already mentioned, Fraser was exceptional for Scotland. It's remarkable that he only has five caps for his country, but now McLeish is trying to build his team around the midfielder.
    75'
    This will set up Scotland nicely for the home game against Israel at Hampden Park. Win that game and the Dark Blues will top their Nations League group and enter the play-off system.

    Fraser comes off to be replaced by Russell. Fraser has maybe been Scotland's best player.
