City goalkeeper David Marshall was in impressive form on his return to international duty last night.

Marshall, promoted to second place in his country's set-up by manager George Burley following the banishment of Allan McGregor, made two vital second-half saves as Scotland B secured a comfortable 3-0 win over their Northern Ireland counterparts at Clyde's rain-soaked Broadwood stadium.

Rangers defender Andy Webster gave Scotland the lead two minutes into the second half, but with the score at 1-0, Marshall was forced to dive at the feet of Andy Little to prevent him equalising.

Then substitute Oliver Norwood, a Manchester United youngsters, drew a fine save from Marshall with a 30-yard free-kick, the 'keeper tipping the ball over the bar.

Goals from George Boyd and substitute Leigh Griffiths wrapped up the Scots victory in front of a crowd of 2,110.
