Steve McCormack hails Scotland players

By , Reporter
Steve McCormack says that his players have shown how good they are with the win against the USA tonight.

Steve McCormack believes that Scotland's win against the USA in the Rugby League World Cup was "fantastic" and "unbelievable".

The USA had a half-time lead, but surrendered that as Scotland scored four tries in the second half.

"That was fantastic - I'm so proud of my players," McCormack told BBC Sport.

"It was unbelievable. My players were written off at the beginning of the tournament and they have shown time after time what a fantastic bunch of players they are."

Despite the win, Scotland will only progress to the last eight if Italy fail to beat Tonga on Sunday.
