Check VAR, check two: Scottish FA seeks answer from UEFA about the Spanish tie havoc

The Scottish FA wrote to UEFA seeking clarification on Scotland's disallowed goal in a 2-0 loss to Spain in the qualifying tie for the European Championship.

Scott McTominay thought he had given the underdogs the lead with a stunning free-kick in Seville. However, it was ruled out by Dutch referee Serdar Gozubuyuk after a video assistant referee (VAR) check.

The on-screen verdict was for a foul on goalkeeper Unai Simon, but later on it was attributed to offside against Jack Hendry.

The Scotland defender was deemed to be interfering with play due to his proximity to Simon.

In the aftermath of Scotland's first dropped points in Euro 2024 qualifying, head coach Steve Clarke insisted he wanted to move on from the incident, but the SFA wants answers on how the decision was reached.

Midfielder John McGinn claimed Gozubuyuk had initially indicated his ruling was for a foul.

Talking to BBC Scotland, the Aston Villa player said: "The referee decides it's a foul. During the game, he changes his mind to say it's an offside. Not sure how clear that is, " concluded he.
