Everton star James McFadden thought Scotland's amazing 1-0 victory against France in Saturday's Euro 2008 qualifier was the best result of his career.

The former Motherwell striker returned from injury to play his part in the success and McFadden thought it was even better than when he scored in the 1-0 win against Holland almost three years ago.

"It's the best result that I've been involved in during my career, not just with Scotland," he said after the match.

"It was a great result and keeps us top of the league and further away from France and Italy.

"It was great in the dressing room afterwards. It wasn't a great performance but it was very effective and we're absolutely delighted."

Scotland travel to play Ukraine in their next Group B clash on Wednesday.
