Jan Gregus scored the winner to lead Slovakia over Scotland on another busy day for Major League Soccer players on international duty.

Here’s a look back at who did what and where.

Slovakia 1, Scotland 0

Gregus’ goal in the 31st minute was the difference as Slovakia defeated Scotland, 1-0, in a UEFA Nations League B match in Trnava Sunday.

The Minnesota United midfielder started on the left wing of Štefan Tarkovič’s 4-1-4-1 formation.   Gregus took a settling touch and fired a low shot from 24 yards out that deflected past Scotland goalkeeper Craig Gordon for his fourth international goal.

Gregus went the distance and Real Salt Lake attacker Albert Rusnak entered the match in the 68th minute for Slovakia, which picked up its fist win in Group 2 and handed already first-place Scotland its first defeat.

Slovakia close out the group stage against the Czech Republic Wednesday in Plzeň.

Kenya at Comoros Islands (11 am ET)

Montreal Impact midfielder Victor Wanyama earned a spot in the Kenyan starting XI for their African Cup of Nations qualifier against Comoros Islands Sunday in Moroni

The sides shared the points in a 1-1 draw in Kasarani on Wednesday. Comoros are tied with Egypt atop Group G, with the Harambee Stars third with three points.

Finland at Bulgaria (12:00 pm ET)

Surely Adrian Heath will also have eyes on Vasil Levski National Stadium where Loons midfielder Robin Lod will hope to lead Finland over host Bulgaria in Sofia Sunday in another Nations League B showdown. Lod has earned a spot in the Huuhkajat starting XI. 

Fresh off a shock 2-0 win over host France in an international friendly at Stade de France on Wednesday,  Finland, along with leaders Wales, cannot be relegated in Group 4 and are contending for promotion to League A.

Finland are second in the group, one point behind Wales. The two sides square off in Cardiff on the final matchday of Group 4 Wednesday.

Armenia at Georgia (12:00 pm ET)

It’s all to play for when Georgia host Armenia in Nations League C Sunday in Tbilisi. San Jose Earthquakes teammates Vako and Guram Kashia start from the bench as Georgia look to remain atop Group 2 in the penultimate match day. Georgia are level with North Macedonia on six points, with Armenia one point behind.

Georgia remain at Boris Paichadze Dinamo Arena to take on Estonia to close out the group Wednesday.

The winner of the group earns promotion to League B.

Honduras at Guatemala (12:00 pm ET)

In their last scheduled match before meeting the US men’s national team in a Concacaf Nations League semifinal in June, Honduras take on Guatemala in an international friendly in Guatemala City Sunday.

Houston Dynamo teammates Maynor Figueroa, who wears the captain’s armband for Los Catrachos, and Boniek Garcia join Real Salt Lake forward Douglas Martinez as current MLS players looking to step on the field. They join former Dynamo star Alberth Elis. Figueroa and Martinez are in the starting XI.
