Thank you for McTominay,&#8221; shouted a fan, sprinting toward the BBC Scotland camera in the heart of the Spanish Quarter. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">After gushing about the midfielder&#8217;s brilliance this season, she turned to rejoin the street celebrations\u2014only to double back, shouting once more: &#8220;Thank you, Scotland!&#8221; before vanishing into the mist with her friends.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Another voice pierced the noise: &#8220;The best in Serie A! McTominay, McTominay, we love you!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Since his arrival in Serie A last summer, Scott McTominay has been adored in Naples. But the part he played in clinching the title has elevated him to legend. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">His bicycle-kick goal just before half-time was a moment of audacity and brilliance, but it was only the beginning. All night he bossed the midfield, barely putting a foot wrong. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">When the final whistle sounded, he collapsed to the turf in tears, and was soon named Italy&#8217;s MVP for the 2024-25 season. To anyone who&#8217;s followed his journey, that accolade came as no surprise.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">And throughout the campaign, his international team-mate Billy Gilmour was just as vital. The former Chelsea and Brighton midfielder has been the conductor of this Napoli side, quietly controlling games while McTominay soaked up the spotlight.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Together, they&#8217;ve not only given Naples a night it will never forget, they&#8217;ve given a proud footballing nation back home something to celebrate. They&#8217;ve etched their names into history as the first Scots to win the Scudetto in more than 120 years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">For now though, they are adopted sons of Naples. And for a city that partied deep and long into the night, that suits them just fine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/sport\/football\/articles\/c780mzy41gko\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Thank you, Scotland.
