Scotland took a first leg over Greece in the championship of nations thanks to a penalty by Scott Mctominay in Athens.
Napoli’s midfielder swept high on the net after collapsing, as Scotland proceeded in the first half.
But Greece was much more dangerous after the break, as 17 -year -old attacker Genk Konstantinos Karetsas came and stole the show.

Steve Clarke’s side reacted the relentless pressure from the Greeks who hit the wood, although the guard Craig Gordon was not called upon to make too many savings.
Scotland may be sure to go back to Hampden Park on Sunday, where they seem to stay in Championship A, while Greece is looking for leaving the championship b.
There was late drama when Grant Hanley climbed a replacement of the Taxiarchis Fountas at the edge of the box and the referee pointed to the spot-but then changed his mind to a free kick just outside the area.
Elsewhere, Ukraine took a 3-1 lead in Belgium, Turkey defeated Hungary 3-1 and a Matt Doherty header gave the Republic of Ireland a 2-1 victory in Bulgaria.
