Callum Osmand laid it out there six months ago that his New Year resolution for 2025 was to gatecrash the world of senior men’s football — and that should let everyone know that he’s not interested in just making up the numbers at Celtic.

Nicolas Raskin is well on the way to becoming an established Belgium international. While it would be a stretch to suggest he is the first name on the team sheet, the Rangers midfielder has every chance of playing for them at the World Cup finals next summer.

A hat-trick for Che Adams and a first international goal for George Hirst earned Scotland a convincing victory in their friendly against Liechtenstein. Adams gave them an early lead before adding two more, one of them in stoppage time, on a comfortable night for Steve Clarke's side. In a side that was much-changed from the one that lost 3-1 to Iceland on Friday, Lennon Miller was excellent on his first start for Scotland.

Scotland slumped to a dismal defeat by Iceland at Hampden Park with a performance that will raise questions about the future of their manager, Steve Clarke. While it was only a friendly international, Scotland's insipid display bodes ill for their forthcoming World Cup qualifying campaign. Not only were they flat and  short of ideas going forward, they were shambolic in defence, where substitute goalkeeper Cieran Slicker had a horror show.
