Diego Maradona’s first match as head coach of Argentina ended with a 1-0 friendly win over Scotland at Hampden Park here on Wednesday.
Scotland’s first chance came in the 22nd minute when a Kris Commons cross from the left found James McFadden in the box but his shot on the turn was deflected out for a corner.
Tevez then had a good chance when Inter Milan’s Javier Zanetti cut the ball across from the right wing but he blasted over.
Bayern Munich defender Demichelis was robbed of the ball in his own box by McFadden in the 42nd minute but the Scot’s weak effort was easily saved by keeper Juan Pablo Carrizo.
The half ended on a nasty note when Celtic’s Gary Caldwell was booked for a tackle from behind on Tevez, which incensed Maradona.
