Video: Scotland 2-3 Poland sees Serie A stars Gilmour, McTominay and Zalewski shine
New Napoli signings Billy Gilmour and Scott McTominay both scored for Scotland, but it was Roma winger Nicola Zalewski who proved decisive for Poland in the Nations League.
There was a lot of Serie A on the pitch at Hampden Park in Glasgow this evening, including Inter’s Piotr Zielinski, Bologna midfielder Kacper Urbanski, Torino defender Sebastian Walukiewicz and Pawel Dawidowicz of Verona.

Above all, it had Napoli deadline day arrivals Gilmour and McTominay, who are yet to make their debuts for the club, but did show what they can do for Scotland by fighting back from 2-0 down.

However, Roma winger Zalewski stole the show by running all night long, brought down twice to earn penalties, converting the winner himself deep into stoppages.
