Spain vs Scotland LIVE: Euro 2024 qualifier result after Scott McTominay goal controversially ruled out

28 mins: Another half-chance for Spain and Morata as a through ball beats the Scotland backline. Morata manages to round Gunn, but then puts the finish into the side-netting from the angle. It may have been offside, anyway, but that’s a reminder for Scotland after an encouraging 10-minute spell.

I should add: it remains goalless between Norway and Cyprus.

26 mins: FOUL! Surely! Scotland get a rare chance to come forward through Christie, who switches play to Robertson. The captain nods on to McGinn, who flicks past Carvajal but is then taken out by the Spain right back. The referee, however, points for a goal kick! Scotland can’t believe it and the home fans are furious with the reaction. This is getting edgy, that’s for sure.

24 mins: Callum McGregor looks to have been fouled in midfield but play is allowed to continue as Spain come forward. A ball towards Oyarzabal is shielded clear by Aaron Hickey, who has started very well in that particular match-up.

The Spain fans are starting to get restless. The boos are starting to begin over each Scotland free-kick and restart, which is surely an accusation of time-wasting.

22 mins: Ryan Christie attempts to lead a counter-attack from well inside his own half but is quickly swallowed up by the Spain midfield. It’s almost like Scotland are playing uphill.

20 mins: Scotland concede possession cheaply and the Spain pressure resumes. A smart turn from Gavi leads to Oyarzabal firing a half-chance over the bar. Angus Gunn, in goal, has yet to be threatened.

15 mins: Scotland reach the first quarter of an hour. Carvajal guides a cross towards the back post looking for Torres, but Porteous is there to guide it behind for a corner.

Scotland survive another scare from the set-piece. The corner was flicked on at the near post but scrambled clear with Morata lurking. That’s the second time Scotland have failed to make the first contact.

11 mins: The Scotland shirts are already dropping deep to form a tight cluster of white shirts on the edge of the box. The Spain pressure is immense already and Balde’s shot, looking towards the far post, is actually blocked by a teammate.

This could be a long night.

8 mins: The small pocket of Scotland fans in Seville are booing Rodri on every touch. The Tartan Army are making themselves heard.

Gavi has already made a difference for Luis de la Fuente’s side with a couple of sharp touches in midfield.

6 mins: Better from Scotland. It’s good from Aaron Hickey as he wins a key challenge and stops Morata from flying forward. He slips a ball out to Dykes, who crosses into the box. It almost breaks to McTominay, but Spain are able to clear.

4 mins: My goodness. Scotland survive again but this has been a dangerous start. A Spain corner is not dealt with by the Scotland defence. Morata is free at the back post but heads wide. This was a harder chance that the first one, but it’s another let off for Clarke’s side.
