The Scottish FA have apologised to their English counterparts after a positive Covid-19 test forced the cancellation of an Under-19s friendly between the two home nations.
Head coach Billy Stark has tested positive for the virus and will now travel home 'in isolation' to quarantine for 10 days.
The match, played at England 's St George's Park training base, was abandoned shortly before half-time with England leading 3-1.
Stark will then be quizzed by the Scottish Government to identify his recent close contacts.
An SFA statement read: "Three players based in England joined-up with the squad yesterday – and they and the rest of the squad were tested again with a view to Sunday’s second match.
"The three players had been in isolation and had no contact with anyone else. Nonetheless, despite testing negative during Sunday’s test, the head coach, Billy Stark, returned a positive test for COVID-19 this afternoon.
"The result of the second test was immediately relayed to the under-19 team manager and the game was abandoned immediately, in line with established COVID-19 protocol.
"Billy will now travel home in isolation and will self-isolate for 10 days. The playing group and the rest of the backroom team will undertake precautionary self-isolation for 14 days, whilst the Scottish Government undertakes a formal risk assessment to assess who Stark was in close contact with during the camp.
"Scotland Under-19s game against England on Sunday has now been postponed along with the scheduled Under-17s match at St. George’s Park on Saturday.
"We apologise to The FA for any inconvenience caused and reiterate our commitment to the health and safety of all our international players and staff."
