Scotland will make their return to the World Cup in buoyant mood following a fine 4-0 friendly win over Bolivia in New Jersey.
In a far from packed Sports Illustrated stadium in hot and humid conditions, Lawrence Shankland struck with a header in the fifth minute, then set up midfielder Scott McTominay for a well-worked second in the 20th minute before Che Adams added two more before the break.
There should be some caution attached to the optimism as the South Americans demonstrated why they are FIFA-ranked 76 to Scotland’s 43, but nevertheless the Tartan Army are entitled to enjoy added positivity as they look forward to seeing their side back on the big stage against Haiti next weekend.
Here are the ratings for the Scotland players:
5. Andy Robertson
Captain played the first half. Assisted Shankland's opener with a lovely cross and came close to scoring himself. Now on 94 caps. 8 | Getty Images
6. Ben Gannon-Doak
This was a strong hour-long performance from the winger, who drove at the Bolivian defence and created Adams' opening goal. End product was improved from Curacao game. 9 | AP Photo/Pamela Smith
7. Lewis Ferguson
Diligent midfield performance as the anchor. His defensive qualities will be needed in tougher matches. 8 | PA
8. Scott McTominay
Scored on his 70th cap. Set the tone with thrusting runs from midfield. Scotland look a more suave team for his presence. 8 | Getty Images
