Andy Robertson captained Scotland as they picked up their first point of Euro 2024 with a 1-1 draw with Switzerland.
The Liverpool left-back played his part in his country’s goal, which put them into an early lead in Wednesday night’s Group A match in Cologne, as a counter-attack accelerated by his driving run from deep ended with Scott McTominay’s deflected shot finding the net.
Former Red Xherdan Shaqiri then produced a moment of brilliance to equalise in stunning fashion for the Swiss, though Robertson so nearly created a second-half winner for Scotland as his free-kick delivery was headed onto the post by Grant Hanley.
The game would finish all square, however – a result that means Scotland go into their final pool fixture against Hungary on Sunday in third place and one point above Dominik Szoboszlai’s team.
