Griffiths was also looking dangerous on his return to the Hibernian FC ground and the Celtic striker had the ball in the net in injury time only to be ruled offside.

Overall a satisfying win for Scotland that should give Gordon a few selection headaches ahead of that crucial game in Dublin on Saturday. Scotland: Marshall (Gordon 45) Anya (Adam 60), Forsyth, Greer, Mulgrew, Maloney, Forrest (Russell 73), Brown (C) (D.Fletcher 60), Naismith (Griffiths 60) McArthur (Morrison 45), Ritchie.
