Jocks Hammer The Frogs!

France 0-1 Scotland
By Thomas McGuigan

Scotland's players celebrate at the final whistle
Scotland celebrate their famous win at the Parc des Princes
Scotland secured an incredible Euro 2008 double over France courtesy of a James McFadden strike in Paris.

The French threw everything at the Scots in the Group B qualifier in the Parc des Princes but could not find a way past goalkeeper Craig Gordon.

Gordon denied the tireless Franck Ribery and Nicolas Anelka with two wonderful second-half saves.

McFadden stunned the hosts in the 64th minute when his 30-yard strike beat the despairing Mikael Landreau.

What an awesome result and did you see the goal? Wicked! It was straight out of the Brazil National Team handbook.
