The Czech Republic enjoyed a winning start to their Euro campaign with Patrik Schick scoring two goals to see off Scotland in Glasgow. After 23 years, Scotland returned to play their first international tournament.

Scotland had the better of the half-chances in the first half with Lyndon Dykes sweeping wide of the near post and Andy Robertson drawing a fine save from Tomáš Vaclík, but it was the visitors who struck the opening blow just before the interval when Schick expertly glanced in Vladimír Coufal's cross, reports uefa.com.

The second half was much more open. David Marshall quickly had to deny Schick and Vladimír Darida, before Scotland roared back as Jack Hendry rattled the bar and Vaclík clawed away a mis-hit clearance from Tomáš Kalas.

The inspirational Schick would have the decisive say on 52 minutes, though, spotting Marshall off his line and lobbing the Scotland goalkeeper from close to the halfway line to stun Hampden Park.

"Two great goals – the second one superb. He had numerous efforts, led the line, brought people into the game and ran the channels when necessary. Overall a great performance," said Packie Bonner, UEFA Technical Observer, as quoted in uefa.com.

Scotland face England next on Friday at Wembley before hosting World Cup finalists Croatia at Hampden on June 22.
