He scored Scotland's first goal in a 2–1 win.[2][3] He also played in the first ever Scottish Cup Final, which his Clydesdale team lost 2–0 to his former club, Queen's Park in 1874.
Anderson moved to Shanghai in the early 1880s to join Messrs Holliday, Wise & Co. At the beginning of 1890 he joined Messrs Ilbert & Co and by 1909 had become the principal partner of the firm.[4]
