Scotland 3-0 Liechtenstein
In a mature and composed performance, 18-year-old Lennon Miller made his first start for Scotland in their 3-0 friendly victory over Liechtenstein. The Motherwell midfielder, who is just one cap behind his father Lee, showcased his impressive passing range and understanding of the game throughout the match.
Miller played a crucial role in Che Adams' second goal by hassling the defender before pinching the ball and laying it off for the striker to finish. He also set up John McGinn with a piercing forward pass and provided George Hirst with several chances.
Former Scotland captain Scott Brown praised Miller's performance, commenting on his exceptional passing variation, maturity, and understanding of the game. Brown went on to say that Miller's calmness and confidence, even among more experienced players, bodes well for his future in the Scotland midfield.
With Scotland's depth in midfield, it remains uncertain whether Miller will see significant game time when World Cup qualifiers begin. However, if called upon, Miller has proven that he is ready to handle bigger challenges.
