For long enough, Scotland have sought a deep-lying midfielder to complement the attacking capabilities of Erin Cuthbert and Caroline Weir.

Cuthbert and Weir looked more like the versions of themselves we see at club level, but what Scotland fans are often deprived of.

Scotland midfielder Erin Cuthbert won almost every duel in midfield, Mayra Ramirez and Aggie Beever-Jones ran confidently at United's defence and Sandy Baltimore was calm and composed from the penalty spot to make it 1-0.

"I don't think you can take Sam, as great as his attacking ability is at the line," agreed former Wales and Lions wing Alex Cuthbert on 5 Live.

"I would be very surprised if Tomos is not on that plane, given both his form and the type of bloke he would be in that environment," said Cuthbert.
