A goal in the 16th minute by 17 year old striker
Levan Mchedlidze took the Scots by surprise and what
looked like a clear shout for a penalty for Scotland
was turned down later in the match. Georgia's David
Siradze kicked in goal number two in the 65th minute
to thwart Scotland's chances. |

| Andriy Shevchenko blasted a reply before half-time, but McFadden drilled in after 68 minutes to ensure victory. |
