Albania Women 1-2 Scotland Women: Scots qualify for World Cup for the first time
Wednesday 5 September 2018 06:14, UK
Scotland Women have qualified for the World Cup for the first time after a 2-1 win over Albania in Elbasan.
Jane Ross clinched victory with a 68th-minute header after Megi Doci had cancelled out Kim Little's ninth-minute opener on the stroke of half-time.
The result took Scotland to the top of Group Two above Switzerland, who were held to a goalless draw by Poland, and through to a place at France 2019.
Scotland controlled large spells of the game and were finally rewarded for creating numerous chances when Ross pounced following a free-kick.
