SNP MSP Stephen Flynn has said he was “gutted” not to be in the US to cheer on the Scotland men’s team as they secured their first World Cup victory since 1990.

The Scottish Economy Secretary also hit back at his opponents who are “getting themselves in a little bit of a tizz” over his forthcoming trip to the States to cheer on Steve Clarke’s side.
