Ally McCoist believes Ryan Porteous will have tougher games as a defender but that he can be 'delighted' with his showing for Scotland.
The former Hibernian defender made only his second appearance for the national side as the Scots saw off Cyprus with a 3-0 victory at Hampden Park. Fellow former Hibee John McGinn was the star again as he volleyed home in the first half before Manchester United star Scott McTominay netted a late brace to hand Steve Clarke's side the win.
Porteous, now honing his craft at Watford after making the exit from Easter Road, took the plaudits of pundits and fans alike for his showing on Saturday with Rangers hero McCoist quick to point out his exploits. The popular pundit believes one particular trait shows how far the 23-year-old has come.
