Scotland have qualified for their first UEFA European Under-17 Championship finals after seeing off the challenge of Slovenia.
Fleck clincher
Wins against Northern Ireland and Wales had left Scotland two points ahead of Slovenia in Elite round Group 5 at kick-off, so needed only a draw to book their place in the finals in Turkey from 4-16 May. And a goal from John Fleck four minutes from time ensured Scotland ended the pool on maximum points and will go into the draw in Antalya on 3 April. Slovenia finish the group third behind Wales on goal difference.
