Lennon Miller “wants to add goals and assists” to his game after a standout performance in Scotland Under-21s’ 5-0 trouncing of Malta.
The Motherwell midfielder scored one and provided two assists on his competitive debut for Scot Gemmill’s side in their Euro qualifier.
Dane Murray, Josh Mulligan and Lewis Neilson were also on target, while Miller’s Motherwell team-mate, Ewan Wilson, helped force an own goal on his debut.
“We knew coming here with the heat, and with them not winning the game [the reverse match] that they’d want to try and beat us,” Miller said.
“We started the game very well and we kicked on. We were excellent attacking wise and disciplined behind the ball. We won the ball back within seconds when we lost it.”
On his goal, which was assisted by Daniel Kelly who has just moved from Celtic to Millwall, Miller said: “I saw the ball go out wide, I arrived in the box and thankfully Daniel found me so I stuck it in the back of the net.
“As a midfielder you need to add goals to your game, it’s partly what you are measured on and getting assists as well is what I want to do coming into this season, so I’m thankful to get a few tonight.”
Scotland face Belgium next month and Miller said: “We’ve got to relish it, we’ve got to challenge ourselves against teams like that.”
