Scots bounce back to beat France
U21 Scotland men turned the tables and got a deserved win over the French winning 2-1 this afternoon.
The Scots took the lead mid-way through the first half after a great interception in midfield was made Ross McIntyre put the ball away with a reverse stick shot.
France snatch a goal just before half time to keep it all level going into the second half. Kleburnes Craig Morton scored the winner tapping in a deflection form a Scottish short corner.

Head coach Graham Moodie is pleased with his team’s performance and believes this is a really good step ahead of the Europeans next week; ‘We battled out the win in the end, but France are a good team and it was a pleasing performance and result.’
