U21 national team coach revealed the list of summoned players for the historical EURO qualifier against Scotland.

The U21 national team must defeat Scotland in the upcoming last qualifying round in order to at least win a play-off place. With a win Macedonia will end up topping the group if Iceland fails to win at least one of their two remaining games.
