Falkirk striker Darryl Duffy has received his first call-up to the Scotland Under-21 squad.
He is in Rainer Bonhof's selection for next week's friendly against Sweden.
Duffy is presently the top goalscorer in Scotland with 17 goals, one of which helped Falkirk lift the Bell's Cup with a 2-1 over Ross County on Sunday.
Falkirk manager John Hughes said: "I am delighted - but not surprised - that his talent has been recognised. I'm sure it's the first of many."
Tuesday's friendly will be a home match for Duffy as it is taking place at Falkirk Stadium.
