Junior Scots lose out to France

Scotland U21 Men narrowly lost out 2-1 to hosts France in their first match in Le Torquet this afternoon.

The Scots went behind in the 20th minute and conceded a second three minutes later.

However, Kelburne midfielder Jack McKenzie pulled one back moments before the half-time interval.

A strong second half performance sadly wasn’t rewarded with an equalising goal despite the junior national side dominating for long spells.

Following the match, Scotland U21 Head Coach Graham Moodie succintly summarised his side’s performance, “A positive performance but disappointed with the result.”

Moodie’s charges return to the fore against the French tomorrow for their second encounter.
