Scotland player ratings vs Georgia as McGregor outstanding, Hickey impressive

Scotland powered to a 2-0 win over Georgia on Tuesday evening despite the risk of waterlogged conditions threatening to disrupt their Germany aspirations.

Goals from Callum McGregor and Scott McTominay either side of half time put the eastern European outfit to the sword, but it wasn't without controversy. Just six minutes into the tie, McGregor had scored - but twice Angus Gunn had already been caught out by the ball slowing down in the water and, as a result, the referee hauled the players off.

Initially, the referee wanted the game to start up again at 8:30pm, but a mixture of a waterlogged Hampden pitch, more downpour and even a Georgia refusal to come back for the restart meant the tie kicked off at 9:30pm - almost two hours after the original commencement.
