Scotland goalkeeper David Marshall dives haplessly as the ball sails over his head into the net.

GLASGOW: Patrik Schick scored twice, including an extraordinary 45m effort from just inside the halfway line, to give the Czech Republic a 2-0 win over Scotland in their Euro 2020 opener at Hampden Park today. Schick put the Czechs in front three minutes before halftime as he towered above two defenders to power home a header, but his second goal seven minutes into the second half will almost certainly be one of the tournament’s greatest.

A blocked effort in midfield saw the ball fall to Schick, who spotted Scotland goalkeeper David Marshall off his line and fire an audacious long-range left-footed lob that curled through the air with unerring accuracy to thunder into an empty net. The win put the Czechs above England, who beat Croatia 1-0 at Wembley on Sunday, at the top of the Group D standings.
