Rangers target Oliver McBurnie was in action on Sunday morning as Ibrox fans watched on.
An experimental Scotland side were in action on Sunday morning as they lost 1-0 to World Cup-bound Mexico at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City.
Alex McLeish’s men lost 2-0 to Peru on Wednesday, and were back in action against another team heading to this summer’s World Cup in Russia by facing Mexico.
Former Barcelona talent Giovani dos Santos grabbed the only goal of the game, side-footing home after just 13 minutes to secure a win for Mexico.
Scotland did go close in the second half, as Swansea City hitman Oliver McBurnie headed against the post from Johnny Russell’s cross, though both Miguel Layun and Hirving Lozano rattled the woodwork for the hosts too.
After two defeats in a matter of days, Scotland fans aren’t particularly enthusiastic right now, and many took to Twitter to slate striker McBurnie for his performance.
The 21-year-old impressed with Barnsley in the second half of this past season, hitting nine goals in 17 games to put himself in contention for McLeish, and he was handed a start against Mexico.
However, fans were left unimpressed, suggesting that the Leeds-born forward is the worst striker to play for Scotland and must have won a competition to feature, branding him a ‘terrible, terrible player’ as a result.
McBurnie is a £4million target for Rangers according to The Sun, and Gers fans seemed a little more reasonable on the boyhood Rangers supporter, with some still wanting him to arrive at Ibrox – though others urged the club to steer clear.
