On STV, the match was the most watched programme in Scotland this year, with a peak of 1.38 million viewers. It also became the most streamed football match ever on STV Player, curiously overtaking an England match (the Euro 2020 semi-final).

Scotland v. Switzerland yesterday had an average audience of 8.6 million on BBC One, peaking at 9.4 million. So looks like the ratings down slightly on Friday night, though I'm not sure if the ITV X/BBC iPlayer numbers are counted there.

Also confirmation in the below that Alex Kay-Jelski, the new Director of BBC Sport, has begun in the role.
