Liverpool defender Andy Robertson overcame an injury scare to help Scotland to a famous 2-1 win in Norway tonight.
Robertson, who was winning his 63rd cap for his country, played superbly as the Tartan Army scored two late goals to edge their Euro 2024 qualifier in the most dramatic of fashions.
Norway led thanks to a 61st-minute penalty from Manchester City striker Erling Haaland, who converted his 59th goal in 60 games for club and country this season from the spot.
And that was the way it stayed until three minutes from the end of normal time when John McGinn's pass broke for Lyndon Dykes, who stabbed the ball home.

The QPR striker then turned provider in the 89th minute for Kenny McLean, with the Norwich City midfielder curling a superb finish into the net.
No-one was more impressive for Scotland than their captain. But at one stage it appeared that Robertson may have to come off after taking a knock to his ankle in the second half. However, the Liverpool left-back managed to get back to his feet and play the rest of the match, which included six, tense minutes of injury-time.
Robertson told Viaplay after the full-time whistle: "The lads who came off the bench did so well. Going being is difficult, but we knew this was the next step in our improvement.
"It was trying to get the balance right. The team spirit is second to none. To create that in international football is unique.
"We couldn't have started this campaign better. We have to qualify now."
The dramatic victory leaves Scotland top of Group A, having now won their first three matches. They next welcome Georgia to Hampden Park on Tuesday.
