Hearts kids star in Scots’ win
Goals by Stuart Armstrong and Tony Watt gave Scotland the win in a match which also featured Tynecastle starlets Jason Holt and David Smith.
Manager Billy Stark had to reshuffle due to Aberdeen defender Ryan Jack suffering a broken foot during the 2-0 defeat by the United States on Friday, but the Scots started brightly and were soon ahead. Smith and Dylan McGeouch both had efforts saved by Canada goalkeeper Richard Gomes before Dundee United midfielder Armstrong drilled the ball into the corner of the net.
