Scotland make light work of Gibraltar in their final Euro 2016 qualifier by easing to a 6-0 victory in Portugal.

Scotland have ended their Euro 2016 qualifying campaign with a routine 6-0 victory over Group D minnows Gibraltar in Portugal.

The visitors took control from the start and Steven Fletcher headed over, before Shaun Maloney saw his low effort blocked by the keeper.

Matt Ritchie then volleyed over from just outside the box and moments later Maloney was denied by the keeper again, as the Scots kept up the pressure.

Gordon Strachan's side were finally rewarded for their dominance in the 24th minute as Chris Martin nodded Gordon Greer's header across goal from point-blank range.

Fletcher almost grabbed a second when his attempt hit the post, but the Scots did manage to double their lead six minutes before the break as Maloney curled a strike into the top corner that left the keeper helpless.

It took Scotland just seven minutes of the second half to add to their tally, as Fletcher rose highest inside the box to head in from Alan Hutton's cross.

The Sunderland striker found the back of the net again four minutes later with a low strike that he guided across the keeper and into the far corner.

Fletcher then completed his hat-trick with a curling effort into the top corner, before Naismith fired in a sixth goal in stoppage time to complete the rout.
