Wilson and Miller score as Scotland U21s thump Ukraine

James Wilson and Lennon Miller both found the back of the net twice as Scotland U21s convincingly beat Ukraine 4-0 in a friendly match at the Pinatar Arena in Spain. Midfielder Alfie Sewart, on loan from Aberdeen to Inverness Caledonian Thistle, completed the scoring with a goal. Miller, the more experienced starter, opened the scoring after just 23 minutes by capitalizing on a defensive mistake.

Wilson equalized just before halftime with a header from a Tyler Fletcher free-kick. In the second half, Miller set up Wilson's second goal just 13 minutes into the period. The match concluded with a decisive goal from Sewart, sealing the victory for Scotland with 20 minutes still remaining. The Scottish side, captained by Tony Docherty, will face the United States in the same venue on Sunday.
