    It's a first win for Alex McLeish in his second spell as Scotland manager.

    We're into three minutes of stoppage time as Jason Cummings comes on for Callum McGregor for the briefest of cameos.

    Hungary 0-1 Scotland

    Oli McBurnie sets off to chase a long ball out of defence from Scott McKenna but is quickly hacked down by Kenny Otigba. Cynical. A third booking for the hosts.

    Hungary 0-1 Scotland

    John McGinn threads a lovely ball through to Callum McGregor, who gets the balls stuck under his feet in a promising position. Hungary immediately break forward from defence and McGinn is then booked for impeding Krisztian Nemeth.

    A spot of retribution perhaps since the hosts have been indulging in some roughhouse tactics since falling behind.

    The Hibs man has put himself about well in the second period.

    That goal will be a real confidence booster for Matt Phillips, he took it really well and he's done his chances no harm at all.

    Hungary 0-1 Scotland

    Matt Phillips applauds the Tartan Army as the goalscorer trots off, with Oli McBurnie coming on for a late run.

    The West Brom man has led the line well and finished off the one chance that came his way with an assured touch.

    The subs keep coming as Callum Paterson takes over from Ryan Fraser, who can be pleased with his first Scotland start, having set up the goal. He also won the penalty which was missed in the first half.

    Hungary 0-1 Scotland

    A lovely back-heel under pressure from Matt Phillips gives Barry Douglas time to curl a cross into the Hungary penalty area and here comes Kenny McLean to meet it but the substitute can't keep his header down.

    A much better, brighter performance from Scotland. The energy levels have been improved. No shortage of quality.

    Another change. Another Aberdeen for Celtic replacement as Ryan Christie comes on for James Forrest.

    Just before that narrow escape, Scotland made a midfield change, with Kenny McLean taking over from Stuart Armstrong in the engine room.

    I don't know what Charlie Mulgrew is thinking of there. His night started badly with a penalty miss and it's getting worse. How have they not scored there?! That is a huge let-off for Scotland

    Hungary 0-1 Scotland

    What is Charlie Mulgrew playing at? The Scotland skipper is robbed by Adam Szalai on the edge of his own box but out comes Allan McGregor to make a good block.

    The ball is quickly worked back into a busy penalty area and the towering Szalai gets a touch, only to steer it narrowly wide.

    A sniff of a chance for Hungary substitute Krisztian Nemeth but Jack Hendry shows great pace and awareness to get across and get a vital touch inside the penalty area.

    In this second half, Scotland have looked sharper, gaining confidence from taking the lead.

    They’ve had one or two opportunities to extend that with Matt Phillips perhaps taking the wrong option when Scotland countered.

    One note of caution is the increasing rate of shots Hungary are firing in.

    That will give them encouragement but Scotland are deservedly ahead against a poor Hungary side.

    Hungary 0-1 Scotland

    Andy Robertson took a heavy dunt a few moments ago and Alex McLeish is taking no chances with the Liverpool left-back as Barry Douglas comes on for his first taste of international football.

    The 28-year-old former Dundee United full-back has been tearing it up for Wolves this season and is something of a dead-ball specialist.

    Roland Varga can hit them. Hungary have a free kick some 35 yards out and the fizzing shot curls narrowly wide.

    A good save but we've got to get there quicker. Ryan Fraser didn't close him down and it was a very good strike by Roland Varga.

    Then when Scotland broke away it was the wrong choice from Matt Phillips. He should have had a shot, especially when he's just scored...

  19. GREAT SAVE!published at 59 mins

    Hungary 0-1 Scotland

    Allan McGregor punches clear but the Scotland keeper is busy again a few moments later as he arcs his back to get fingertips to a strong, dipping shot from Roland Varga.

    Scotland break swiftly and it's 4 v 3 for a moment but Matt Phillips makes a mess of his pass.

    Hungary 0-1 Scotland

    Scotland are popping passes around with zip and purpose as they sense Hungary are on the ropes but they can't find that telling final pass.

    Another setback for the hosts as captain Balazs Dzsudzsak is withdrawn with what looks like a hamstring problem.
