Rangers starlet Kyle Glasgow tonight made his debut for Scotland at under-21 level aged just 16.

The midfielder, who is currently on loan at Alloa Athletic, came on in the second half of the 5-2 win over Azerbaijan at Rugby Park.

Glasgow, also eligible for Portugal, was subbed on by Tony Docherty in his first match in charge of the youth national team.

The teenager - who also plays on the wing - had been previously involved at youth level for Scotland and for Portugal. However, this was a major jump from under-17 level to joining the under-21 side.

So far this season, Glasgow has featured for both Alloa Athletic, through the co-operation club agreement, and Rangers U19s.
