The Tartan Army were in action for the first time at Hampden Park since the Manchester United legend's sad death in January.

And ahead of kick-off today, Scotland paid a fitting tribute to Law.

A montage of his best moments was played on the big screens while fans held up cards to create a banner that read "Lawman".

Both teams showed their appreciation alongside supporters with a minute's applause.

And Sir Alex showed his respect by entering the pitch alongside Law's family.

The ex-Man Utd manager held a shirt aloft with the 1964 Ballon d'Or winner's name and number on the back.

Fans loved the emotional tribute, with one saying: "Lovely moment legend to legend."

Another added: "Great gesture."

A third wrote: "Absolutely class scenes."

Law sadly died at the aged of 84 earlier this year following a brave battle with Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia.

The former striker is widely-regarded as one of the best to ever play for Scotland and Man Utd.

He is his nation's joint-record goalscorer of all-time on 30 goals - tied with Kenny Dalglish at the top of the list.

At Man Utd, he won two league titles, the FA Cup and European Cup while netting an incredible 237 goals in 404 games.

The likes of Gary Neville, Wayne Rooney and all of the Red Devils squad attended his funeral.
