Chris Martin and Shaun Maloney find the net as Scotland take a 2-0 lead at the halfway stage of their Euro 2016 qualifier with Gibraltar.

Scotland are on course to end their Euro 2016 qualifying campaign with a win after taking a 2-0 lead into the break in their clash with Gibraltar this evening.

The visitors took control from the start and Steven Fletcher headed over, before Shaun Maloney saw his low effort blocked by the keeper.

Matt Ritchie then volleyed over from just outside the box and moments later Maloney was denied by the keeper again, as the Scots kept up the pressure.

Gordon Strachan's side were finally rewarded for their dominance in the 24th minute as Chris Martin nodded in Gordon Greer's header across goal from point-blank range.

Fletcher almost grabbed a second when his attempt hit the post, but the Scots did manage to double their lead six minutes before the break as Maloney curled a strike into the top corner that left the keeper helpless.
