Gareth Southgate’s side went in at half-time with a comfortable 2-0 lead.
England took the lead through Phil Foden before Jude Bellingham doubled the lead just moments later.
And Lineker could not help but share his delight at the performance on Twitter.
He Tweeted: “This is somewhat delightful.”
However Scottish fans were less than impressed with the Match of the Day host as they bit back suggesting he should stick to politics.
Earlier this year Lineker got into hot water after his criticism of Suella Braverman’s migrant boats plan.
One replied: “Stick to the politics Gary.”
A second commented: “Luck.”

A fifth added: “No it’s not.”
While another joked: “It’s only a friendly flower.”
Southgate had experimented with his side with Lewis Dunk coming in and Kieran Trippier being picked at left-back.
Lineker made 80 appearances for England during his playing career, scoring 48 times.
