Two late goals by Aberdeen forward Lawrence Shankland give Scotland Under-21s a 2-1 victory against Hungary in Thursday's friendly in Tatabanya.

Two late goals by Aberdeen forward Lawrence Shankland have given Scotland Under-21s a 2-1 victory against Hungary in today's friendly in Tatabanya.

It was former St Mirren manager Danny Lennon's first game in charge after Billy Stark quit last November.

His new charges began brightly, Declan McManus heading straight at Gergely Nagy and John McGinn firing over.

The visitors took the lead just after the hour at the Tatabanya City Stadium when Szenes Bence chased a loose ball before finishing past goalkeeper Jack Hamilton.

Shankland was on hand to bring the visitors level five minutes before the end when he nodded past Nagy, and he struck again in the final minute following Donald Love's cross to seal the win for the Scots.
