JAMES FORREST rightly got all the plaudits after his goals against Albania and Israel and he is a player that is in superb form right now.

He seems a different player to what he was a couple of years ago and he is making a name for himself for club and country this season.

But you can’t overlook the importance of the save that Allan McGregor made at the end of the game.

He had no chance with either of the Israel goals but it was an outstanding stop that won Scotland the match because there would have been no way back.

He stood his ground and his reactions were sensational, as they have been all season.
