There was a milestone international moment for the teenage son of a former Carlisle United star this week.
Lennon Miller, whose dad is the ex-United striker Lee Miller, scored his first goal for Scotland Under-21s.
The 18-year-old Motherwell midfielder shone in a 5-0 victory over Malta.
Miller scored one and provided two assists in his first competitive start for Scot Gemmill's side.
He headed home Scotland's fourth goal in an emphatic European Championships qualifying win in Ta' Qali.
It underlined the status of the former United target-man's son as a rising star in the Scottish game, Miller jnr having already played for younger age groups at international level.

"We knew coming here with the heat, and with them not winning the game [the previous meeting] that they'd want to try and beat us," Miller said to Scotland's official channels after the game.
"We started the game very well and we kicked on.
"We were excellent attacking wise and disciplined behind the ball."
On his attacking impact in the game, the 18-year-old added: "As a midfielder you need to add goals to your game, it's partly what you are measured on, and getting assists as well is what I want to do coming into this season, so I was thankful to get a few tonight."
Miller has come through the youth ranks at Motherwell and two years ago became their youngest ever first-team player when he made his debut aged 16 years and six days.
He has since made 46 first-team outings for the club and scored three goals.
Miller's father Lee was a Blues player from 2011 to 2014.
The striker, after joining from Middlesbrough during Greg Abbott's reign, was particularly influential in the 2011/12 season when his line-leading displays almost took United to the League One play-offs.
In total Miller senior made 98 appearances and scored 32 goals for the Cumbrians. He was also capped by Scotland at Under-21 and full international level.
